♡Feather|Flower Care Tips:

Hello Hello!
Ok, so I keep forgetting to make a post about feather/flower care.. people need to remember that these beauties are very delicate and should be taken care of. So here's some tips..

Handle your feather jewelry and accessories gently.
Avoid breaking shafts or pulling out fibers.
Clean soiled feathers with a damp cloth.
Fluff and expand feathers back to natural shape by steaming over tea kettle or pan.
Pheasant Tail, Wing or Duck pointer fibers that separate can be stroked with fingers to "zipper" fibers back into place.
Store feather jewelry and accessories separately and hanging from a jewelry stand or fixture or in a plastic
accessories bag.
Don't leave them in the heat.. they will get hot and they will fall apart. I only use hot glue and stopped using epoxy due to fumes.

If there is anything else...I'll post it! If you have anymore questions feel free to ask! fancyyThat@yahoo.com
