Feathers and Such...

Recently I have been experimenting with feathers. Feathers in necklace designs, feathers in hair clips, and on cuffs. I have always loved feathers, especially the wispy white ones that look beautiful in the shabby chic style for the home. I have an all white feather wreath that I purchased a few years ago during the Christmas season. I know it is technically for the holidays, but not at my house! It has been hanging in the same spot for a while now, and happily employed as a fulltime resident. I have also started a small collection of white Christmas birds with real feather tails. Most of these collections are not new, but sweet vintage reproductions. The latest however is an antique mercury glass swan with real feathers. She was purchased for a song at a local antique store. She has found herself a nest in a pile of black velvet roses and seems to be comfortable there. So, for the time being, expect to see a few feathery be-jeweled pieces floating around in my Etsy shop and stay tuned for cuffs! I just can't help myself! I have always been fascinated by them. In the mean time, enjoy 20% off of all my fall jewelry pieces. Look for "SALE" in the title of the item and you will get an additional 20% off after purchasing. See my notes on Etsy for instructions. Happy Thanksgiving to all! Let us not forget to be thankful for all things good!
