DIY Paper Feathers

"Take your nature walk to a new level when you use your inspiration to create paper feathers! Using only paper, paint, glue stick and spaghetti (yes- that's right- NOODLES) you can make realistic paper feathers to display or use in other craft projects. You can make sturdier feathers using plastic coffee stirrers and masking tape- so this also could count as a recycling craft. These take about 30 minutes to create and are great for ages 8 and up. Perfect for scouting groups or party crafts, too."

These feathers are so unique! I had no idea they were made out of paper - they look so realistic.
