Rustic Natural Beauty
The vine or wood hoop dreamcatcher is a more authentic
representation
of the traditional Ojibwe Dream Catcher than is its
leather-wrapped counterpart.
Native American lore tells us that willow branches or vines were
fashioned into hoops and then weaved like a spider's web with fibers or sinew cord. Some
tribal tales speak of
dreamcatchers personalized and decorated with articles from everyday life such as stones or beads made of clay or bone and feathers.
Other legends describe dreamcatchers as being unadorned items consisting of only a wood hoop with webbing. There are also accounts of masculine and feminine versions as well as tales
of dreamcatchers that were created and given as gifts
symbolizing a rite of passage from one stage of life to the next.
