DREAM CATCHERS

Our selection of native crafted dream catchers is excellent!!!    Dream catchers are a beautiful way to share the Ojibway dream catcher legend:
According to legend, the night air is filled with dreams, both good and bad.  The Ojibway also believed that wisdom and knowledge came to a person in their dreams.  The dream catcher was the charm used.  The catcher was made from a loop of red willow with a web of sinew woven around the top down to a hole in the center where it is tied off with beads and a feather.  The catchers were hung from the ceiling in the dwelling or from the cradle boards of infants.  The catchers moved freely in the air and caught dreams as they floated by.  The good dreams would follow the web to the center and run down the feather and onto the sleeping person.  The bad dreams, not knowing the way to the center would get hopelessly entangled in the web and perish with the first light of the new day.
 
 

We have many different sizes of dream catchers: from small to fairly large, from single designs to double, and spiral ones.
