I wasn't kidding when I said that I love feathers.  I spotted Rachel Bilson on this magazine cover over a year ago and I was obsessed.  When I first saw it I thought that was a chunky chain necklace with feathers attached, but now when giving it a fresh glance I think those feathers are actually a part of her dress.  Well, whatever the case, I loved the look and was determined to make it mine.  I searched high and low for something similar and when I came up with nothing, I decided that I could make something just as unique.  I swear that this was the easiest DIY project ever.  I purchased a necklace at Loehmann's for $15, bought some ostrich feathers, and used a hot glue gun to attach them to the back of the necklace.  Done and done.  In total, the project probably took me about 5 minutes to complete and yet I feel like I achieved just the look I was aiming for.
