I’ve always wanted to make my own but the prospect of learning a new craft seemed a little daunting. This dream catcher can be made with (mostly) basic crochet skills.

I got the idea to use a recycled plastic base for a dream catcher after seeing an image of a crochet mandala within a hula hoop. I didn’t have any hula hoops on hand. Even if I did, I’m not so sure that I would have enough patience to crochet something so huge! When I stumbled across some small cups in the pantry, I decided to make something similar but on a much smaller scale. I used 3.5 oz solo cups to create mini dreamcatchers.
