Glittered Feathers { Dazzling DIY }
Oh how we love a bit of tasteful bling! What makes a glitter feather so incredibly enchanting is the fine balance between soft feminine edge of the feather and the diva-ish glamour of the glitter. So without further adieu, let’s get glittering:
You will need:
- Feathers of your choice (flat duck feathers work best as they provide a solid “surface” to work on)
- Glitter in a colour that matches your wedding theme
- A strong glue stick (steer clear of runny glue that can make a mess)
TIP: Get a big box to work in to keep your DIY-ing contained and the glitter spill to a minimum.
Now to get started:
- Place your glitter in a small flat bowl.
- Grab a feather, place it on a flat surface and apply a thin layer of glue to the areas you wish to cover in glitter.
- Place the feather on top of the glitter in the bowl and press down gently with your finger.
- Lay the feather down in a separate box or on some newspaper to dry completely.
- Once the glue has dried, gently tap the feather with your finger (while holding it over the box) to shake off excess glitter.
