Featherbrained

A few weeks ago, I got bit by the urge to start making things with feathers - jewelry, specifically. Thus far, I've made several pairs of earrings, though I do have some other crafting projects in the works. The middle picture is of a pair I made for myself!







I've gotten a little carried away with all of this stuff. I think this last picture speaks for itself:



In my defense, one of those totes belongs to my mom.....the smallest one. All the rest of the mess is mine, and the feathers I have consist both of some that have been purchased and some that I've picked up while out adventuring. I have a couple of the latter that I'm still trying to identify a species on. At first I thought they might be hawk, but now I'm leaning more toward turkey vulture. Exciting stuff for a nut like me!
