How to make paper feathers
Variation 1: The cut-in
To make the cut-in paper feathers, simply fold your paper in half and cut the feather shape out. For this design, you’ll be cutting the feather with two similar angled ends.
Variation 2: The fringe cut
To make the fringe feathers, fold the paper in half and cut the feather shape out of the paper. This design will be more of an oval shape than the previous style, with a skinny feather end to it.
To make the detail cut feather, cut the feather shape from your paper — this shape needs to be wide enough to create good, substantial detail on the paper feather.
