Blocking
The finishing touch is blocking if desired. My mandala is blocked by spray blocking. You can do that by laying the mandala flat on the blocking board and pin it from the center out to the edges. Spray the pinned mandala with water. Let it dry completely before removing the pins (photo A)
Joining
You can cover the wire ring with sisal twine (photo B), fabric or paint the ring in the colour you like. Wrap yarn around wire ring tightly to cover entire ring. You can also use wooden macramé rings or the inside frame of embroidery hoops.
Place and sew each flower in 10 cm ring (photo D-K).
– Fold the yarn (about 20 cm long) in half to create a loop. Place the loop underneath crocheted middle piece and pull the loop to the front. Thread the ends of the yarn through the loop and pull tight to secure it.
– Position the mandala in the middle of the hoop.
– Tie the middle piece to the hoop in four different places, one at the top, one at the bottom and on each
side. Continue with the rest of the corners of the middle piece.
– Weave in the ends into the crocheted mandala.
– Tie all your decorative items to the bottom of the hoop.
– Make a loop at the top for hanging your dreamcatcher.
Decorate the dreamcatcher with whatever you like, such gemstones beads, coloured ribbon or self-made tassels.
Decorate the dreamcatcher:
– Ribbon tails. Cut ribbon in pieces, fold it in half. Take the loop portion of the ribbon and pull it through the wall hanging bottom. Pull the loose ends of the ribbon through the ribbon loop. Repeat with the other pieces of ribbon.
– Thread beads onto the ribbon or string. Thread a bead onto your strip of fabric or string. Position the bead to where you want it on the string. Tie a small knot underneath the bead. The knot will hold the bead in place.
– Hang feathers. Groups of two or three feathers together, secured and decorated with a bead. Thread a bead onto small ribbon or a piece of yarn. Tie a knot around the tops of the feathers to secure them and pull a bead on the top of the feathers.
Use the materials of your choice to decorate; ribbon, crocheted feathers and beads etc. That is absolutely up to you.
These suggestions are for inspiration. Let your creativity flow and give your own finishing touch to your wall hanging, using decorations you like, make whatever your heart desires!
