DREAMCATCHER LEGEND
The Ojibwe people have an ancient legend about the origin of the Dreamcatcher: Storytellers speak of the Spider Woman, known as Asibikaashi, who took care of the children of the people. When the Ojibwe people dispersed to the four corners of North America, Spider Woman had a difficult time making journeys to all the sleeping children, so the mothers, sisters, and grandmothers weaved magical webs for the new babies using willow hoops and sinew. It is in shape of a circle to represent how giizis (the sun) travels each day across the sky. The dreamcatcher will filter out all the giiwanaadingwaam (bad dreams) and allow only good dreams to enter into our minds. There is a small hole in the center where those good dreams may come through. With the first rays of sunlight, the bad dreams will perish.
MY SHOP
Everything in my shop is crafted by me, an Ojibwe artist. I am a member of the Lac Courte Oreilles Tribe, part of the Ojibwe people, a band of the Lake Superior Chippewa Indians located in Northwestern Wisconsin.
***Consider pairing with a small leather medicine pouch (sweetgrass, tobacco, sage, cedar) to do a smudging ritual on your new dreamcatcher. For the Anishinaabe/Ojibwe, smudging is an essential aspect of their spiritual practice to bring positive energy to an item or space.

Gift wrapping and packaging
Jewelry is put a burlap bag or small jewelry box and accompanied with a personalized description of the traditional (Native American) significance of the item. Dreamcatchers are carefully packaged in a large box with crinkle paper to protect the feathers, and the traditional story of the dreamcatcher is included on a postcard.
Sizing details
Please pay attention to the lengths of my items as they are highly variable, even though I try to make everything as similar as possible. If you see something and would like a different length, please contact me and maybe we can work something out! I have a lot of inventory so chances are I can make one for your length request.
Why is my antler different?
Once I slice the antler into the desired sections, I use a Dremel tool to smooth the edges, ensuring that every side and edge of the antler piece is polished. Following this, I apply 2-3 layers of clear lacquer, which not only adds a glossy finish to the antler but also enhances the various colors and details of the antler.
