A craft inspired by
Standing in the Light: The Captive Diary of Catharine Carey Logan, Delaware Valley, Pennsylvania, 1763
 |
 
Snow Hunter believed that Nature had sent the eagle to be his guardian.
Sharing his own eagle necklace with Catharine was his way protecting her. Create
your own eagle necklace to share with someone dear to your heart!

MATERIALS:
Modeling clay, 18 inches of ribbon or leather strap, paint, small household
items for decoration (tiny button, beads, noodles, beans, etc.), glue.

DIRECTIONS:
Use a rolling pin to make a flat 1/4 inch layer of clay. Cut the paper pattern out
and lay on top of the clay. Using a dull edge, cut the pattern into clay. Use a
pencil, pen or straw to create the tie hole. Allow the clay to dry. Paint and decorate or
just leave your eagle plain like Snow Hunter's. Out of clay? Not to worry! Just use a
piece of cardboard or a brown paper sack! Present your unique eagle necklace
to someone special and share the story "Standing in the Light." Now, that's the Lenape way!
