This simple-to-make dream catcher project is the perfect craft for kids of any age. Make sure to stock up on lots of great items for this craft and lay it all over the tables, so the kids can get super creative.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Pick the size embroidery hoops you want to use; around 15cm is a perfect size for a project. It will work perfectly for kids of all ages.
If you separate the hoops then you’ll have two instead of one!
Step 2: Tie a knot on the hoop and have the kids start wrapping the wool around. Once they are done adding their wool, tie it into place.
You can have them add as little or as much wool around their hoops as they like. If you have younger kids, you could even leave the hoops bare if you want to save a step.
Step 3: This part was super easy; make sure to pre-cut a bunch of pieces and lay them on the craft table. Have them start wrapping the wool around the outside of the hoop in a web pattern and tie to secure it.
