-highfive- Yay for January Birthdays!
A lot of the eyes I have simply thrown away >.>; sadly those may get tossed due to them being fused to the plastic container now. I will need to whack them with a hammer to get them off the holder thing, which will damage them badly. Any that are decent enough, I plan to paint the back black, and try to sell them to those making beast/animal costumes that require glassy eyes. A lot of my 'test' ones are different colors like red, purple, blue etc.
On the subject of Pheasant Feathers, my mom came up with a brilliant idea to try. She said florist spray paint may be a good option to test on some feathers. It will still allow bendability, and a light layering. But even if it makes them a bit slicker or glued together losing that softness? It will be exceptionally cheaper than getting ones that have been acid dyed.
