DIY: String Feather Necklace

To make this necklace, you will need:
- Embroidery Thread/String
- Wire
- Wire Cutters
- Scissors
- Mod Podge
- Paintbrush
- Wax Paper
- Chain
- Jump Ring

Cut a strip of Wire, this is 18 gauge.

This piece is about 4 inches long.

Curve the end of the wire into a loop.

Choose whatever colors you want your feather to be.

Cut strips of your embroidery string about 4 inches long.

Tie a piece of string around the wire, making the knot right in the middle of the string.

Repeat over and over with the strings.

Put the strings and wire on wax paper for easy clean up.

Brush the strings downward with Mod Podge to create a feather-like shape.

After the strings have dried a little, turn the feather over and brush again with Mod Podge.

When the strings have dried, cut them into the shape of a feather and snip off the extra wire.

Connect the feather to a jump ring and then to chain.


And you're done!
