I presented lots of paper jewelry before.
I really like in this jewelry from stacked paper that you simply stack several layers of previously cut paper shapes. This way it gets the strength of paper mache and can get nevertheless a very precise shape.

This yarn feather (II) is made in the same way than the yarn feather that I presented before.
I’ve only been fascinated by the ways to further embellish it :)
