Care Instructions:
With care my handcrafted feather creations should be durable and give you much enjoyment. Feathers are naturally wind and water resistant. However, if they do get wet set them aside to dry naturally and gently realign the feathers, if necessary, between your clean thumb and forefinger in the direction of the feathers barbs (i.e. go with the grain and not against it).
Store them in their box between uses to protect from the sun, humidity and organic pests.
