Welcome to Emmanuelle’s beautiful studio!
In this lovely two-hour session, you will learn how to work with feathers. The first half hour will be dedicated to an introduction to birds and their feathers, as Emmanuelle is also an ornithologist. You will play a little game to discover the different feathers and find the birds to which they belong.
Then it’s time to get practical! Emmanuelle will show you the 5 basic techniques for working with feathers.
You will then choose the different feathers at the “feather bar” for your creation. There is a wide choice of patterns, colours and textures.
After a bit of trimming and carving, you will place your feathers on a ribbon before putting the finishing touches.
You will leave this workshop with a beautiful bookmark ready to accompany you in all your readings.
