DIY: "Birds of a Glittery Feather" Mobile

Here's a simple little, decorative DIY to pretty-fie any space in your house.

Supplies:
  • a stick 
  • white spray paint.
  • twine
  • feathers
  • gold glitter
  • modge podge
  • string
  • paint brush
  • scissor
Instructions:
  • spray paint stick and let dry.
  • use your paint brush to brush the modge podge onto your feather, front and back. (Wherever the modge podge is, is where glitter will be, so pay attention.)
  • sprinkle glitter onto wet modge podged feather and sit to dry.
  • repeat with each feather.
  • once feathers are dry tie *string to the feather  tips (use a bit of glue if you are worried that the feathers will get pulled on). *Varying lengths of string look best.
  • tie end of stringed feathers onto your stick.
  • tie a piece twine on each end of your stick. 
  • hang and enjoy!
