INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Keeping the ribbon at an angle, tape the end of the wide purple ribbon attaching it to the metal ring.

• Wrap the ribbon tightly all around the metal ring.

• Make a double knot.

• Add a drop of craft glue or clear nail polish. Wait 5 minutes for it to dry.

• Cut the excess ribbon.
• With one end of the silver cord make a double knot onto the ring.

• Add a drop of glue to the other end. Let dry for 5 minutes.

• At 30 cm (12 in) from the knot on the ring, wrap the remaining length of the silver cord loosely around your fingers.

• Use the clip to hold the cord together. This will help you to weave the web pattern.

• With a ruler and a pen, mark the ring at 6 cm (2 ¼ in) from the first knot.

• Pass the cord over the ring.

• Slide the cord through the loop from the back.

• Place the cord on the mark and pull gently on the cord to tighten it.

• Clamp the second clip onto the cord intersection to hold it in place.

• Repeat steps 10 to 14 until you have 8 loops on the ring.

• Unclamp the silver cord. Following the pattern, thread 12 beads onto the cord.

• Wrap the silver cord as in step 8 and 9.

• Slide the first bead to the left.

• Using the same technique as step 11 and 12, pass the cord and the beads over the cord.

• Slide the cord through from the back.
• Make sure the beads are following.

• Move the holding clip to secure loop.

• Repeat steps 17 to 21 until no more beads are left on the cord.

• Unclip the cord and thread the 12 remaining beads.

• Continue to weave the web pattern as in steps 18 to 21 until no beads are left on the cord.

• Continue weaving for 1 last row.

• To secure the weaving, tie a double knot on a junction, as shown.

• Add a drop of glue or clear nail polish on the knot, let dry for 5 minutes.

• Cut the excess cord.

• Use the remaining piece of cord to create a loop to hang the dreamcatcher.

• Thread one sequence of beads and secure them by making a knot on top of them.

• Make a knot at 10 cm (4 in) and cut the excess cord.

• Hang the dreamcatcher to help you complete the following steps.
• Put a drop of glue on the ends of the 3 nylon cords and wait 5 minutes for it to dry.

• Thread a pendant bead onto the end of a nylon cord.

• Make a double knot to hold the bead in place.

• Add a drop of glue on the knot.

• Don’t cut the excess now! Cut them only on step 42 when all the bead strands are attached to the dreamcatcher.

• Thread the beads following the pattern until you have 43 beads on the thread, including the pendant. This is the middle strand and the longest.

• Attach this strand onto the middle of the ring with a double knot. Add a drop of glue.

Tip: Use the threader to thread the beads if needed.

• Repeat steps 33 to 37 for the 2 other strands, but this time using 36 beads on each strand.

• Attach the strands at 8 cm (3 in) from the middle strand with a double knot.

• Add a drop of glue on all the knots. Wait 5 minutes for the glue to dry. Cut the excess cords.

• One color at the time, cut pieces of 70 cm (27 ½ in) long.

• Attach the ribbons by making a double knot onto the bottom of the ring distributing them evenly.

• Put a small drop of glue on the ribbons ends to prevent them from unraveling.
• Repeat for the other ribbons.

• Add gems to the butterfly.

• Gently fold the wings to make the butterfly more realistic.

• Use a small piece of adhesive tape to fix the butterfly in place.
