Top Tip
If the dreamcatcher is hard to weave you can thread the wool any way you like to make a pretty pattern.
How to Make
- Print out the templates and cut out the dinosaurs out of coloured card and the bones out of glow in the dark card.
- Take a black plate and carefully cut out the centre of the plate.
- Punch out 2 holes close together around the circle (see the template for a guide where to place the holes)
- Take a ball of wool (the colour can be your choice) and cut off a long length.
- Stick the end to the back of the plate with tape and weave the thread through the holes like a running stitch.
- When it comes to the second round loop, thread through the stitch of the first round.
- This is the traditional way to weave a dreamcatcher (see instruction printable) however if this is too difficult you can weave it in any way that you like adding glow in the dark beads as you go.
- When you get to the centre tie a knot and trim the end off.
- Stick three lengths of wool to the bottom of your plate and add some beads to each string tying a knot in between so that they don’t slide down.
- Add a dinosaur to the end of each string add a wiggle eye and outline it with glow in the dark glue.
- Stick the bones around your plate and in the gaps on the string to complete your cool glow in the dark dreamcatcher.
