You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one

 

 

If you follow me on any sort of social media, or know me in real life, you know about or have seen my fascination for Native Americans. I get that from my Grandfather. Every year we would go to the reservation, and he would buy my sister and I a new dreamcatcher. His collection of Native American memorabilia was one I always admired. He started my fascination with dream catchers, but Matt and I re-sparked it in my later years. We collected and made our own, and I have yet to stop that. Dream catchers were first introduced by the Ojibwe people, and as everyone knows are said to filter out bad dreams and allow only good thoughts to enter the mind. I find dream catchers soothing and healing, making them (maybe I should sell some!), surrounding myself with them, and learning about them all have further promt the obsession I have. My collection is growing (14!) and will continue to. I even make sure my loved ones have at least one made by me as little gifts and have bought some of them one made by a real tribe from my favorite store in the city Western Spirit. I like collecting them from all the places I travel, and making them unique with real bird feathers I find on the ground. My goal is in my future home to have a whole wall covered, with bought and made ones! Do you have a hobby/collection? If not you should start one! It's theraputic, I tell you.
