Making unique dreamcatchers requires using different colour feathers. The colour feathers one might need are difficult to find and sometimes expensive too. I found an inexpensive way to dye feathers to the colour of your choice!

All you need :

White feathers

Food dye/colouring

Step 1 : Wet the feathers before you use them. Put the feather into the food dye bottle and leave it for a few hours. Note : The depth of colour depends on the duration of the feather staying in the bottle.

Step 2 : Remove the feather and wash it to make sure the colour has seeped into the feather! Now you can use coloured feathers for all your DIYs.

It can be messy work so wear clothes you wouldn’t mind getting dirty! Hope this works for you!
