Small rainbow and large Scottish Thistle dream catcher earrings

I have one pair of the small rainbow dream catcher earrings done and am working on the second pair needed.  Oh, these are tatted in Tatskool's Rainbow Bright HDT size 100.
These are the large pair tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Scottish Thistle.
 I have now tatted 4 pairs of these(3 large & 1 small) and I still have 2 small to get done, plus a pair of cross earrings too.  I wonder if I will be able to tat any thing other than earrings again.....I have to!  I have other projects still needing finishing and tons on my want to do list!!  :)

The ones in Scottish thistle are really beautiful! Where are you getting these rings and feathers? My daughter would flip for these!

I love your earrings! I wish I could wear them, but I've been thinking they'd be great pendants also!

Thank you Michelle!! I buy the rings and feather charms for the large ones at Hobby Lobby. The large earrings are about the size of a quarter(maybe a bit larger). The smaller size would have been made with the same rings, but in a smaller size, but they seem to have quit selling them-FRUSTRATING!!, so I had to figure out something else and they are made with plastic rings and then tiny feather charms from Michaels(I think-if not, they would be from Hobby Lobby too). Then you just wrap a ring with picots facing inward(with the large rings there are little flat spots around the ring and I use that as a guide-I had to guess with the plastic rings, then chains with picots in the center of each chain going around and around into the center. No exact pattern-none are exactly alike. And I do the second in reverse as close the the first as possible. :)

Thank you Diane!! I think they would be nice pendants is they were a bit larger(or the same size if you like smaller pendants like me), but done on a regular ring maybe. :)

So pretty. I think that rainbow thread fits well with the dream catcher idea, though the thistle ones are pretty too.

Thank you Jane!! :) Now, I have used 3 different colors and I have another color to do today. :)

Haha! I'm visiting my family and there's a Hobby Lobby here! Woohoo! Thanks for the info, now I have to try, I think!

If you need any help I will do my best(but it's mostly just guess work and chains). :) Can't wait to see yours!! :)
