I got the idea because my friend's bday is comin nd she likes bears. Happy b-day martha. I was also to lazy to go to Miachel's craft store so i used what ever i had in my house. You don't necessarily have to use a bear, you can use any shape, like a heart, star, etc.

Steps (23 steps, 150 minutes)

  1. 1

    fix the paperclip into the shape of a bear. use one of them as the top of teh head,the ears, and the bottom for the face. use the plyers if needed...

  2. 2

    Glue the begining of your first choice of yarn, to the top of the head, and do it again in 1 cm of the string to make a hole for the string of the necklace to go in...

  3. 3

    use the gluegun to connect both sides of the paperclips together forming the entire face...

  4. 4

    use the same color of string all around the paperclip to outline the bear. sorry about the corner. i got a bit messy with the glue gun...

  5. 5

    use your second color of yarn to make the inside of the dream catcher.i used the same color cuz i cudnt find another color. tie a knot on one corner of the ear and then go under to the other corner...

  6. 6

    then go from under to over as shown...

  7. 7

    then go upward...

  8. 8

    then you go inside the hole and come back out through the inside of the bear...

  9. 9

    then you go around the next part of the bearand do a over and under loop of the paperclip nd take it out from the inside of the hole...

  10. 10

    do the same steps all the way around till u get bak to where u started. finish it up with a over-under loop...

  11. 11

    now u go to the middle of the first loop around the ear.and do a loop like the first 1 but this time its a under-over loop ...

  12. 12

    then you do the same for the other side... do it all around...

  13. 13

    sorry bout the blurry pic but after ur done do it again but this time make it over-under.continue this pattern 2 more times.(rmember, after u do a row you go over-under then under-over or visa-versa)...

  14. 14

    Sorry bout the color change but i found the wite color after. XD! make sure to try to keep it tight and pull on it to keep it in shape. tie a knot to one of the strings...

  15. 15

    now on to the feathers choose your color and and youe choice of beads, i got these...

  16. 16

    grab one of ur yarns and make a loose loop...

  17. 17

    tie it around the feather.Make sure you have enough room for the beads and another knot...

  18. 18

    insert the beads and cut the string...

  19. 19

    tie another knot to the end of the feather to keep the beads in place...

  20. 20

    next tie it to the dream catcher. you can put as many feathers as you want. i also put an extra bead in the middle feather to give it more detail...

  21. 21

    now measure the length that you want the necklace to be. you can use any other string for this part. fold it in half and insert the side with the loop throught the loop you made in step 2...
