Fall Feather Trees

What you'll need:
2 - 12 inch tall styrofoam cones
1 large bag Turkey feathers
hot glue gun + hot glue
18 inches copper colored ribbon
2 strait pins

What you do:
1. Heat up your glue gun and sort turkey feathers by size. They should be about the same size.
2. Begin at the top of the cone and glue feathers around the tip covering all of the white styrofoam.
3. Continue applying feathers around the cone. The bottom tips of each feather should almost touch. Overlap feathers slightly to cover up styrofoam completely.
4. When you reach the bottom of the cone, line up the bottom tips of the feathers with the base of the cone when gluing the final row of feathers.
5. Wrap the ribbon around the bottom of the cone and trim to fit. Apply a thin bead of hot glue to the cone where the ribbon will wrap. Working quickly, wrap the ribbon over the hot glue and press down.
6. To finish the end of the ribbon, turn under the end and secure with a small dot of hot glue and a strait pin.
