Liz makes some easy felt feathers

Yesterday, I made some super easy felt feathers. I was totally inspired by this upcoming Etsy shop, The Opulent Nest. I love her feather art prints. Since feathers are so in right now, I decided to try and take a whack at making some myself. Here's how I did it!

I used a few sheets of felt, a pair of scissors, this pattern, a pen and last but not least.. my flat iron! (You can also use a regular iron, but I figured that would have been more work!)

First, cut out some feathers by using this pattern. Then, you'll need to grab a feather with one hand and fold it in half.

After that, grab your already-heated flat iron and iron those babies until there is a nice crease! Don't hold the flat iron on the felt for too long. Hold it just as long as you'd hold it on your own hair!

See how nice they look? I decided not flat-ironing the stem part of the feather looked better, like on the yellow feather.

Well there you have it! A super easy tutorial on how to make felt feathers. You could use these for so many projects, like a feather garland or a cat toy.. The possibilities are endless! I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and have a great weekend.

Love, Liz
