This week in our online workshop we showed participants how to decorate feathers using a range of techniques. This is a lovely meditative crafting activity which required taking some time before the event to get outdoors for a walk and find some feathers.

Please look at our Part 2 post for a film about making and decorating a dream catcher with painted feathers.
If you would like further ideas for decorating, or indeed making your own feathers if you don't have any real ones to hand, we have put together this collection of links to our favourite sites that that inspired us:
