My combination pentagram-dream catcher-chime is the perfect example of my need to create multi purpose items. The ribbon wrapped pentagram is woven like the traditional Native American dream catcher however the weaving creates 6 pentagrams, one in each point and one in the center. This makes 7 pentagrams all together which is a very magickal number. Each point is adorned with representations of the elements adding another dimension to the magick. Lastly, I added the chimes which can be used for a multitude of purposes like calling the elements, gods, or faeries; to signify the beginning or ending of a ritual or spell work; or just because you like the soft tinkling sound. Of course, it can be used as a traditional dream catcher too!
