It’s pretty simple… just keep your feathers safe from dust, bright light and moisture!- DUST & BRIGHT LIGHT- Just use common sense when you store them! Ie: Don’t hang them in the rear view mirror of your car for a month, and don’t store them in a dusty corner on your vanity!
- MOISTURE- We all forget- I did it yesterday! When I got out of the shower I realized I still had one of my feather necklaces on! If they DO happen to get wet, grab a hair dryer and use low heat while you gently fluff them back to life! They WILL be beautiful again!
And one more thing!
- THE TRUTH ABOUT CATS AND DOGS-Keep your feathers away from your pets! Cats and dogs seem to be magnetically attracted to delicate little tufts of feather! And I am unfortunately speaking from personal experience here! Grrrrrrr!
Just a few simple things and you will be able to enjoy your feathered adornment for decades!
Cheers!

haha!! I should have said something about cats.... One of my very first creations was not only played with, but EATEN by one of my friend's cats. lol. I was SO upset.
ReplyDeleteMy FAVORITE bit that I have learned is about the flat ironing. It helps so much when I am putting jewelry together from feathers that haven't been stored properly. Its aweeeesome.
Didn't know about the bright light affecting feathers! Good to know!
Lovely blog!! :-)
