DIY Week: Day 3 - Feathers..

What you need:

• Shoes! I recommend simple shoes, so the feathers can be the highlight.
• Feathers in different lenghts! I took marabou feathers, they’re pretty and soft
• Something "bling"! Tip: Don’t take something too big, I bought some hairpins with a rhinestone attachment, I could easily remove
• Felt in the color of your feathers
• Hot glue gun

Step 1: Cut out a felt triangle.It’ll be later attached to the shoe like in the pic below. The numbers are important for the next steps.

Step 2: Start with felt side #1. Take the longer feathers and hot glue them to felt side #1. Pay attention to how the feathers are bent – see pic.

Step 3: Now you proceed to felt side #2 and attach the feathers semicircular – now the feather you take have a medium length.

Here’s an illustration how to proceed further. After the first row of feathers (purple) you put a second row on the first (pink).

Step 4: After this you should see no felt any more. Please pay attention: For the second shoe everything has to be the on the opposite side!!

Step 5: Now you might want to put something on the spot where the feathers of the second row meet to hide it. Just hot glue it on that spot.

You can also use the feather piece as a fascinator if you just attach a pin!
Step 6: The last step is to hot glue the felt triangles to the shoes!
