Do you have any tips for working with feathers?

Well, that does depend on which of our fabulous feather products you have chosen, with both natural and synthetic options available. If your feather has got crushed or damaged in the process, you can hold it over the steam of a kettle for a few seconds and then gently brush it with your fingers for the perfect shape. Be extra careful with the steam, do not burn yourself and use tweezers or tong if you are worried about this. Sticking feathers can be a bit of a challenge, and it is important to ensure that you use the right glue for the job.

A small amount of hot glue on the stalk of the feather will keep this part down, however, if you want to stick the whole thing to wood, paper, cardboard or any other surface, then craft glue or PVA glue might be the best option. It is important to remember that you will not be able to move your feather once it has been stuck to the project, as this will damage its structural integrity. If you want a little bit more freedom, then try a spray adhesive. However, you always ensure that you work outdoors or in well-ventilated area when you are using this medium.
