How to make Tie-Dye Peacock Feathers

Our Tie-Dye Turkey has been a hit for a long time on this site.  I’m happy to say that we’ve expanded to …. Peacocks!  I can’t think of a more beautiful bird than a peacock.  The colors are exquisite.  I have fond memories of seeing one at the San Diego Zoo roaming freely.  This awesome project can be done at home, camp, or in the classroom.
