L egend Dreamcatchers are a tradition in many Native American cultures including the Ojibwa. The mother of a new child weaves a dreamcatcher and hangs it over the child's cradle.
Dreams filter through the webbing.
Good dreams are able to find their way through the center hole, but bad dreams become tangled in the webbing. The first rays of the sun each day destroy the captured bad dreams. Some dreamcatchers are simple hoops of wood with webbing woven of thread, sinew, or plant fibers. Other dreamcatchers are decorated with beads, small gems, feathers, and pottery shards. You will find numerous dreamcatchers in the Bed and Breakfast as a tribute to Native Americans, and to provide guests with a restful night's sleep and pleasant Northwoods experience.
