Step 2:  Use the craft knife to draw a line down the centre of the feather. Be careful not to press too hard as you don't want to cut right through the clay! Then use the knife to draw lots of small lines going from the centre line outwards toward the edge of the feather. This will create the feather like texture. Then use the craft knife to carefully make a small hole at the bottom of the feather - this will be for the necklace chain.&nbsp;  Leave the clay to dry (as the feathers are very thin the clay should only take a few hours to dry, however you may have to leave it overnight.)
