diy doily dreamcatcher - how to make doily dreamcather

Annyeong...

A few days ago I did a search on the internet and found something interesting. Lately I'm looking an article about "how to decorate your room" something sort of DIY stuff (do it yourself).

I really like these thing that related to DIY project, maybe even have an addicted for it. When I found something interesting, that comes in my head is not "where can I buy it?" but rather "how do I make it?".

That's when I saw the article or rather a picture about dreamcather, I've been wanting to make this thing, but because my my desire too much ( want to make this and that), then the idea about dreamcather simply forgotten.

When I saw it again yesterday, I immediately did a search about how to make dreamcather. Then I found the doily dreamcatcher tutorial at Lune Vintage, and I liked it the idea of using doily as a center of the dreamcatcher.

You will need:

doily (i make it by myself)

hoop (i use rattan hoop)

yarn or cord

wooden beads

feathers

scissors

multipurpose adhesive

How to make:

Start by cutting a length of your yarn and wrapping it around your hoop. The larger the hoop the more yarn you will need. Glue the first section of wrapped yarn with multipurpose adhesive and let this dry.

Continue to wrap the yarn around the hoop tightly

Place the doily in the center of the hoop, and tie four corners using a bow (just to make sure the doily not shifted). Then stretch the rest of the doily using yarn.

Now it's time to add the extra bits. Cut 3 pieces of yarn. Double these over and attach to the bottom half of your hoop as shown above.

Add as many wooden beads as you like, wherever you like. Stick feathers with another yarn piece at the bottom of your swinging cord pieces. You shouldn't need to use any glue.

Voila! and this is the result

dark grey cardigan

Annyeong...

Aku baru ingat kalau lebaran tahun lalu aku pernah membuat cardigan crochet pesanan teman mama...

Teman mama kebetulan pesan dua pasang cardigan itu dengan warna dan model yang sama, berhubung tanggat waktu pemesanannya pendek, aku akhirnya bantu mama dengan menyelesaikan satu cardigan itu...

Inget banget kalau waktu membuat cardigan itu harus sedikit rombak pola, karena kalau mengikuti sama dengan pola aslinya hasilnya bakalan jauh lebih kecil...(tapi yang rombak pola, mama juga sih...aku ikut ajja)

Belum lagi warna benangnya yang abu-abu tua itu... jujur ajja aku karena lebih suka dengan warna-warna pastel ceria, waktu merajut dengan benang abu-abu itu sedikit bosan...tapi karena temen mama yang pesan keukeuh mau warna itu, yasudalah... biar bagaimanapun pembeli kan raja...

Voila akhirnya jadi juga cardigan itu setelah ngebut selama 1 minggu (kalo nggak salah) waktu pengerjaan agak lama karena harus bongkar pasang beberapa kali akibat perombakan pola...

Tapi setelah ngeliat hasil jadinya seneng juga sih (walaupun warnanya bu-abu tua) hahaha...
