necessity is the mother of invention

i've been wanting to do a turkey project with w this month, but have been perplexed about where to buy feathers. i was on my way to w's class the other day and i passed one of these shops that i have passed hundreds of times.

you can't see it well in the picture but inside i spotted big feather duster. i had an epiphany... feathers. turkey. that's it.

so we bought it, went home, and got busy.

not bad, ey? it's not michael's, but it'll do. the only downfall is that w has been using what's left of the duster for a hockey stick and my living room is covered in chicken feathers.
