Hi, so I'm a craftsy creative person and my Master is very visual. So combining the two we have the result of us getting together and making our own toys - him watching, enjoying and recording, me working away. Naked of course, and playing with the materials we use. Just for fun Master said that all our projects are going in the Wolf's Den. I'm going to write about what we did, but please remember that these are here to give you ideas and you can elaborate on them as you please! So enjoy and I hope you find it inspirational.
Project 1:
Feather tickler. - making time: 10 mins
Materials:
Feathers - 10-12 is enough . We used coloured, soft 10cm long feathers.
Long metal/wooden rod, the type used for helping flowers stay upright is good (try a garden centre).
Super glue - fast drying!
Thin wire/ string
Masking tape (a good source: http://www.masking-tape.jp/en/
Materials are from a crafts store unless otherwise stated.
Method:
Bunch together your feathers, holding them together at the bottom. Tie them with string or wrap the with thin wire wire.
Add a spot of glue to the tip of the metal/wooden rod and push it in between the feathers and the wire.
Then wrap some more wire/string around it to fix it properly. Using the masking tape, start wrapping it around the bottom of the feathers - covering the wire and the feather ends. Then holding the tape at an angle to the rod start winding your way down to the end of the rod overlapping each wrap.
