Troubleshooting
Feathers are not sticking well.
Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use a stronger adhesive appropriate for the material you are attaching the feathers to (e.g., fabric glue for fabric, hot glue for wood).
Colours are not as expected.
Feathers are naturally dyed and may have slight variations. Natural light conditions can also affect perceived colour. Store them away from direct sunlight to preserve vibrancy.
Feathers appear crushed or bent.
Gently fluff the feathers with your fingers. If severely bent, a light mist of water and careful reshaping may help, followed by air drying.
Too many small feathers for the intended use.
Sort through the pack to select the sizes you need. Smaller feathers can be used for intricate details or combined to create larger effects.
