Hi!
I did this peacock last year after following your videos. It was my first time and I was very happy with the final results. The tail has real feathers but all the rest is paper.
I need to make a new one as this one got burnt in the Australian fires, but I’m sure the next one will be much faster!!! (this one took me a month)
Thank you so much!! 🙂
Paper mache peacock’s tail
Jonni…was this peacock made using one of your patterns…and if so, is the pattern still available?
Hi Lezlie. This beautiful peacock was not made from one of my patterns, and I don’t have a pattern for a peacock. However, our friend Kelly Richard made a Great Blue Heron and wrote a tutorial that shows exactly how it was done. They have a different shape and no peacock tail, but it might give you some ideas for making a peacock of your own. You can find it here.
I love peacocks! They are the world’s most beautiful birds and you have done an amazing job recreating the stunning plumage. Looking forward to seeing your next version 🙂
Maria, that is a beautiful creature. His perch is perfect. We had peacocks for a while, and this one brought back fond memories. Sorry you lost him in the fires. That was awful. Can’t wait to see the next one. Thanks.
What a nice peacock! Really love the fact that you used real feathers for the tail, it looks amazing.
What a handsome fellow!
Thank you for sharing…I was sorry to hear you lost him in the fire, but I’m thankful for the shared pictures and inspiration.
A beautiful piece indeed!
