Hello, kathpressey, I didn't really learn the head dress making, I looked at pictures, books and museum exhibits and went from there. I did use turkey feathers, dyed the tips black and lengthened the quill end with tubing in order to simulate eagle feathers which are now of course a protected species these days. All other materials are pretty much the natural thing. Horsehair trails, brow beading rabbit skins and so on. I made two one Crow, one Sioux. They are looking a little worse for wear now because children cannot resist.
