This video blogger, Meg Allan Cole, shows viewers some of her DIY
crafts, while she makes them herself. She is also known for creating
decorations for her home, and some event ideas, tips and tricks for weddings
and seasonal holidays. In the video above, she teaches us how she could make a
dreamcatcher.
Personally, I love dreamcatchers. I'd like to buy one to display
in my house. However, I can't find any dreamcatchers for sale in the shopping
places I go to here in the Metro. I'm grateful to have stumbled upon this video
because, instead of spending so much on a dreamcatcher, I could just make one
from things lying around in my house.
This video blog definitely encourages resourcefulness, as most DIY
tutorials do. Meg also encourages creativity, by stating that we could do a
different method and use different materials in making a dreamcatcher. Bottom
line, it really is "anything goes". Crafters are masters of their own
work. Meg is just an adviser, giving tips on how to do crafts such as this.
What I like about this video blog is that she really took her time
explaining the steps in her tutorial. Her voice was loud and clear, so no text
was needed. Just like a recipe, wherein it gives the ingredients needed, Meg
mentions all the materials needed for this project for easier reference. I also
like how she gives tips on making a dreamcatcher quicker to do, such as
doubling the twine when wrapping the embroidery hoop. The lighting is perfect,
and the video is in high quality, which makes viewers have a clear picture on
the dreamcatcher.
Overall, this video blog really wants me to look at her other DIY
tutorials because she gives great advice. This dreamcatcher is definitely going
in my to-do list of craft projects, along with other projects I’m procrastinating
on.
