Dream Catcher

CATCHER OF DREAMZ

in the previous post i casually mentioned that a friend and i are sharing an art space at the Goat Farm, that being said one of my first projects is to whip up some DREAM CATCHERS! as an avid arts & crafts supplies collector it was time to get a space for my mega collection and since loft living in the city doesn’t provide office space at a reasonable cost i opted for a separate workspace. the farm is an amazing spot to get inspired, have some alone time, meet other artsy folks and really dive into projects while working close to a friend who has always been an inspiration. throughout the years i have done quite a bit of peddling my own creations- such as selling stickers, posters or “hippy halos” at music festivals so…when i decided it was time to get a space that also meant i need to make back a little bit of monies [hints] making some “inventory” to sell at local festivals and markets.

getting back to dream catchers… 

it’s sorta crazy how trendy they’ve become yet i really dig how unique they’ve gotten from the original “design.”  been collection inspiring photos as ideas to take the my supplies and turn them into something dreamy//

how the dream catcher is made: 
Using a hoop of willow, and decorating it with findings, bits and pieces of everyday life, (feathers, arrow heads, beads, etc) the dream catcher is believed to have the power to catch all of a person’s dreams, trapping the bad ones, and letting only the good dreams pass through the dream catcher.

been dying to share these Sam Edelman Boutique wedges with you all! apparently Edelman teamed up with DSW and created an exclusive line of shoes that are a little less expensive yet chic and the same great quality of his regular line. the lower wedge is perfect for me being someone who cannot comfortably wear heels due to injuries nor do i need the height. i am keeping my eye out for more of this line at DSW since these are already a new favorite!
another awesome purchase is this neck tie/band from American Apparel. its made of chiffon and wire and can be twisted to any shape for anything-hair, hat, neck, belt-? you name it. being its AA its not cheap-$14-so if you are crafty i’d DIY it. now that i have one of my own, might just mimic it myself!
