If you were looking for some crafty and natural-looking ways to decorate your space, this DIY dreamcatcher project is the way to go. From Free People, these instructions result in a boho-chic triangular driftwood dreamcatcher complete with crystals and other embellishments.
In addition to three pieces of driftwood (or any type of wood, really), you will need recycled fisherman's netting, natural (potentially tea-stained) cotton string, optional accessories (like crystals, feathers, bells), jute or hemp. You will also need scissors and hot glue, not to mention a place to hang your new creation. The DIY dreamcatcher is fairly simple to make but does take some time.
Whether you choose to hang it over your bed like a traditional dreamcatcher, as a statement piece on the wall or as an outdoor decoration you can't go wrong.
