From Feather to Featherbulous
I stumbled upon some blogs the other day and I have to say, I am amazed by the creative ways you can turn a feather into featherbulous. There are many ways you can alter feathers. You can strip, cut, dye, paint, modpodge , stitch and put glitter on them. I found 3 blogs that do exactly that and wanted to share it with you guys.
DIY: Love Struck Pencils
You can find the tutorial here. Basically you use one of our imitation eagle feathers and slice them into half and cut them in an angle. Finally you glue them onto the pencil and viola! You have the cutest arrow pencil ever!
Collar Con Plumas
Although this tutorial is not in English, you can kinda understand how to make them just by looking at the pictures. Instead of using glitter (like most of the tutorials out there) she used chunkier materials that add the shine you need to make a statement necklace. All you need is some turkey t-base feathers and trim them so you end up just having the flat part of the feathers. You can use white glue or mod podge to stick the embellishment onto the feathers and let it dry. Try making them into earrings too!
DIY Gilded Feathers
This tutorial is from one of my favorite bloggers - Mom's Crafty Space. Instead of using spray paint she used gold and silver liquid gilding by Martha Steward on the feathers. The blogger use some duck feathers for this project. If you want to paint feathers it is better to use quill feathers instead of body feathers so they maintain their feather shape after you paint them.
So if you have some cool projects do share it with us!
