Description This paperclip dreamcatcher is about two and a half feet wide, and it ensnares bad dreams like fly paper.

I made the frame from thick wire wrapped by twine. Inch-wide blue, purple, pink, and green paperclips are linked together in the center. A hook attacked to the frame allows this dreamcatcher to hang from the wall or ceiling.

heres a link to the tutorials, in 2 parts

I like your use for these paperclips. I never thought of doing them in a dreamcatcher, but it looks really cool how you did it.

Currently I'm trying to find a way to make a dragon out of them without using the chainmail sort of style like this and without untwisting them. It's going to take a ton or two of paperclips.

JPCopper In reply to MandolinDoodler [2012-01-20 23:31:16 +0000 UTC]

x3 thanks, i think your skin art is cool. are you going to settle on one as a tattoo?

that sounds pretty, how big do you want to make it?

MandolinDoodler In reply to JPCopper [2012-01-21 00:54:49 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, I'm not sure if I would even want a permanent tattoo and even if I did I'm horrible with making choices.

I'm trying to figure that out. I want it to be pretty big, maybe around a foot or so high. I think it'll be more slender than fat though, like a Chinese dragon.

that one C: you can wear a glove and people will go 'why do you always wear a glove' and youll say 'cuz im a zombie!!!' and yank the glove off and scare them

you can make a pheonix after and sell um as a set

MandolinDoodler In reply to JPCopper [2012-01-21 01:20:44 +0000 UTC]

I love that idea! I should try it sometime...

A pheonix would look amazing with the right colors or even in just silver. This is the pattern I decided on using to make the dragon: [link]

MandolinDoodler In reply to JPCopper [2012-01-21 03:09:34 +0000 UTC]

3D. I have a really cool design in mind but it'll be really hard to do
