I remember the feathers were attached 2 different ways.<BR/><BR/>The one's with bigger quills had a small hole drilled into them (with a dremel or just poked? I'm just guessing as they were predrilled)<BR/><BR/>The smaller ones we had to glue little loops to the quill. It was a heavy duty glue, like shoe glue or something. When the glue dried, we sewed the loops & predrilled feathers onto some leather to make the headdress.<BR/><BR/>I agree with Sarah D on hot glue. It never holds up in the long run for me.<BR/><BR/>Good luck - look forward to seeing what you come up withArtsnarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02555660254668191695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751285215938850138.post-58220227273101397822009-03-26T12:29:00.000-07:002009-03-26T12:29:00.000-07:00Z probably has ear mites...you know, like the ones...Z probably has ear mites...you know, like the ones that dogs get.Jrahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07217727250636683718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751285215938850138.post-3121002594672034442009-03-26T12:09:00.000-07:002009-03-26T12:09:00.000-07:00Okay in my opinion hot glue isn't actually useful ...Okay in my opinion hot glue isn't actually useful for ANYTHING long term. It doesn't adhere well to most surfaces, and is easily pulled away.<BR/><BR/>I don't know anything about attaching feathers...just don't use hot glue ;-)Sarah Dunganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13965846286478447780noreply@blogger.com
