Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps to assemble your Luna Dream Catcher.

1. Prepare the Moon Frame: Lay out the moon-shaped frame on a clean, flat surface. This will be the base for your dream catcher.
2. Wrap the Frame with Yarn: Take the acrylic yarn and begin wrapping it tightly around the moon frame. Ensure the wrapping is even and covers the entire frame, securing the ends with a knot or a small amount of craft glue (not included) if necessary.
3. Weave the Web and Add Beads: Using the metallic cord, begin weaving a web pattern across the inner curve of the moon frame. As you weave, strategically thread the faceted beads onto the cord to create decorative elements within the web. Secure the cord ends.
4. Attach Ribbons and Cords: Cut the various ribbons and cords (pink, purple, clear, gold metallic) into desired lengths. Fold them in half and loop them onto the bottom curve of the moon frame, creating hanging tassels. Vary the lengths and colors for visual appeal. Attach the purple charm to one of the hanging cords.
5. Integrate the Fairy Lights: Carefully wrap the white fairy lights around the wrapped moon frame, or weave them into the web and hanging cords. Position the battery pack discreetly at the back or bottom of the dream catcher.
6. Install Batteries for Lights: Locate the battery compartment on the fairy light string. Open it and insert 2 button batteries (not included), ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
