Does anyone have a use for all the loose feathers from their flock?

I give them to a friend of mine who just likes to collect feathers, but the tail feathers from my peacock, I use in vases with long silk flowers... it looks great, I also have an order this year for some of his tail feathers from a women in the village........

I used to make quills with the larger ones, but now I bury them next to plants as I believe it helps them grow

That is a cool idea! I am going to try that out this year! We have used feathers in our big Christmas tree as ornaments but I had never seen that idea.

Feathers make really pretty earrings too. And we use them to decorate our horses manes and tails. You can make people hair clips out of feathers too..
