Instructions in 14 steps And this is how it works:

Step 1

Wrap 3 cm of the double-sided adhesive tape around the metal-ring, then take off the foil.Place 1.20 m satin ribbon at an angle and wrap completely the ring around. At the end, stick 2 cm adhesive tape onto the satin ribbon. Cut off the remaining tape, take off the foil and wrap tightly the end of the tape.

Step 2

Knot the 1.20 m threading silk, this knot should be pointed to the ring, and secure it with some glue for jewellery. Thread the needle for threading beads and thread the first arc as follows: Bead one dark big hole Rocaille, 7 Rocailles with silver inlet, then one after each other big hole Rocaille bead pearly-transparent-pearly and finally 7 further Rocailles with silver inlet and one dark big hole Rocaille.

Step 3

At a distance of 4.5 cm between the big hole Rocailles beads, lay the strand once around the ring and then thread back through the last threaded big hole Rocaille bead.

Step 4

Continue with the 7 next arcs with 7 Rocailles with silver inlet and thread the last arc through the first big hole Rocaille. Tie into a knot the strand’s end with its top and put some glue for jewellery on the knot. After drying cut off the strands.

Step 5

Thread 1.50 wax cord into the needle for threading beads and thread successively all arcs through each central big hole Rocaille.

Step 6

Close the circle by knotting the ends of the wax cord together. Thread once more with the needle through the first big hole Rocaille.

Step 7

Thread the net for the dreamcatcher as follows: Bead one pearly big hole Rocaille, then thread back in the middle of the first section through the big hole Rocaille. Now thread the next 7 pearly big hole Rocailles in the middle of the successive sections.

Step 8

2nd row, thread successively 8 big hole Rocailles in the middle of the section. 3rd row, thread the 7 transparent big hole Rocailles.

Step 9

At the end, thread the middle as follows: thread one pearly big hole Rocaille into the middle of the next section.

Step 10

Bead one dark big hole Rocaille, one glass polished bead, one dark big hole Rocaille, one pearly big hole Rocaille, place them around the cord of the opposite section and then thread them back through all 5 beads. Once or twice more thread them back, thus are all stitched. Cut off the remaining cord.

Step 11

At the end, thread the other cord end through the first big hole Rocaille, put some glue for jewellery briefly before dragging it, then drag it and cut off the remaining part.

Step 12

For the hanger, place 0.5 m of the wax cordel in the middle of the ring. Thread both ends into the needle and then bead successively one pearly, one dark and one transparent big hole Rocaille.

Step 13

Secure the beads and the cord ends with an overhand knot.

Step 14

Shorten a bit the strand of the deco-feather and thread it into the needle. Shorten slightly the quill. Thread the Rocailles with silver inlet to about 1 cm beyond the end of the quill. Now thread the next 9 Rocailles, place them on the ring and thread them back through the already threaded Rocailles. Pull tight the strand and finally thread it again through the last Rocaille from top to bottom. Put some glue for jewellery onto the strand's end at the Rocaille and cut off the rest.
