From Auntie Debi I just wanted to share this with our Tribe. My niece, Theresa Geiszler, made these dreamcatchers for her daughter Airka’s school friends. Then they took them to school so the kids could finish decorating them, making them into either bracelets or necklaces. The kids had a great time and they all turned out beautifully. 1 am very proud of you. EC. for taking the time to do this for your daughter Airka’s class! Courtesy photo Congratulations - Matthew A.
