Flower Alternatives: Feathers

As you may have already seen in our other flower alternative posts, there are so many different materials you can use to make centerpieces and bouquets. Fresh flowers can be terribly expensive and potentially unpredictable, so using a different kind of decor can be a stress-free way of saving big bucks.

You’ve likely considered silk or fabric flowers as an alternative to fresh. But what about feathers?

We’ve put together a nice list of beautiful feather decor and bouquets made by the talented artist over at Etsy. In addition, if you’re feeling crafty, consider trying one of the tutorials posted below.

If you have a little DIY skill or just want to buy something that lasts longer than a few days, feathers are a lovely option.
