fan decorating
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to decorate a fan. I have noticed some pictures of fans that have thread and feather work done on them. I am wanting to learn how to decorate my own fan. If anyone could give me some pointers I would really appreciate it. Thanks a bunch- Look forward to hearing from you.:)

Thanks Blackbear!
I went to the links and found some very interesting information. Now my question is how do u do thread work on the fan? If anyone can explain that it would help. I have heard some one say that they used fingernail polish. Just trying to see how this is done. Thank for your help.Comment

I figured this type of thread belongs here rather in jingle area...maybe someone here can help this person out?(See message below)
Also in this thread can someone make tutorials on how to make: flat fan, wing fan, drop fan,tail fan etc...? this would be a big help to those who use fans...02-18-2007, 01:58 AM -
I'm looking for ideas on making a new tail fan!
I know how to make, but looking for new ideas.
I have two tails - a golden eagle and a bald eagle.
Need ideas right away.
Pictures would be good.
