Makes the perfect gift for people who need an extra little bit of help getting a good nights sleep...

Legend has it the first dream catcher was created by a spider, the spiritual protector of a Native Indian tribe, it could not defend all its people as the tribe grew and spread out.

It was created to watch over people furthest away from the motherland by protecting them as they slept, keeping harm away whilst at their most vulnerable. It’s said that when hung above the bed in a place where the morning sunlight can hit it, the dream catcher attracts and catches all sorts of dreams and thoughts into its webs throughout the night. Good dreams pass through and gently slide down the feathers to comfort the sleeper below.

Bad dreams, however, are caught up in its protective net and destroyed, burned up in the light of day. This act helps the mind wake up feeling fully rejuvenated, with less negative, bad thoughts floating round leaving you feeling much more positive about the day ahead.

Circle Rainbow Suncatcher is handcrafted in Bali and ethically sourced.

A Suncatcher is a small reflective, refractive, and/or iridescent ornament. It may be made of glass or other translucent material designed to be hung indoors near a window to "catch" sunlight. Therefore Sun-catchers work best when they are situated in a window that gets direct sunlight.

Before you can think about how to hang your Suncatcher, you’ll have to pick one out, of course! Our Suncatchers come in a variety of designs and types, so you can browse to your heart’s content. If you already have a room or place in mind, you should consider the size and type of Suncatcher that you’re buying. If you haven’t considered where to hang it, that’s totally fine, just buy one you are drawn to and find the perfect place for it later.

How to hang a Suncatcher – Start by cleaning your window, a clean surface will help the suction hook adhere to your window. Next, wet the section cup before placing it on the window, ensuring it will not slip off the clean window.

Now you can sit back relax and enjoy the colours and patterns your chosen Suncatcher makes.

These fantastic looking rune stones are of excellent quality and come in a zip pouch with an information card. Runes are thought by some to be a way of interacting with both the spirit and the living world. The system of premonition by runes can be credited to two tribes who came together and produced a combination of symbols and old signs which were found on a variety of paintings, ritual and domestic items in the North from as early as Paleolithic times. There are, however, other myths surrounding the origins of the runes including the Volsungr, a Northern ancestral tribe who crossed into Europe before the Ice Age. Today the use of the runes seems to be enjoying a modern day revival with collections becoming widely available. They are great to collect or to give as a gift. © Please do not copy text.
