I have also created a new line of polymer clay sculpts. I call them Hen Feathers. I have had pet chickens for two years now. I really love my birds, and had a few favorites too. Out of the 27 birds I had I only have one left. over the past year, first foxes then bobcats killed them off. Every time one was killed a pile of beautiful colored and fuzzy feathers were left behind. I would gather them up planning on using them in my crafts. In honor of my beloved birds I lost, I started sculpting whimsical hens and roosters in three sizes using the feathers for their wings and tails. You can see the whole line of them at my Etsy store: www.sacredcat.etsy.com Here are a few pics to peak your curiosity.
