Once upon a time, @ditavonteese herself reached out about doing fans for the upcoming production of @diamondsxdustuk. I was equally excited and terrified, but it was a successful project! @toscacyr led the creative charge on the ensemble pheasant set I posted earlier. Luckily @katrina.inprogress had done some wide flourishes recently, so she made coming up …
The team called me about a week before the start of the tour. Thank goodness it was only 2 sets (double layer on my 20″ staves to be ~5ft across). I made the fastest work of assembly I could so they could ship on Friday to be delivered on Saturday! The clips from the tour …
Set of 2 fans each with 12 12″ staves and 24 plumes sized 18-24″ (28″ at center) in Sushi Salmon.
Set of 2 fans each with 12 12″ staves and 36 plumes sized 18-20″ (27″ at center) in a ruby pink salvaged feathers. Front accent staves encrusted by Bold Burlesque (@boldburlesquepasties).
Set of 2 fans each with 12 8″ specialty staves and 24 plumes sized 18-20″ (25″ at center) in Champagne Pink.
This elegant set features 250 golden pheasant sidetails on double layer, peakaboo metal 10 stave set in collaboration with @katrina.inprogress. Feathers are approximately 28″ and set is about 33″ at center.

This mondo set recently landed with @wintersinclair! Able to use it with or without the front plate layered on my handled V- staves. Can’t wait to see how the vintage flowers come to life with her painting and stoning. This set is max size, swish and lux look!
One been getting a lot of new inquiries for structures with alternative grips lately, so sharing these as an example. Moving the center of the fan and still allowing them to collapse or come apart for travel has always been an issue. I mean you can just bolt on a front plate handle, but it …
@valerieveils was actually an early adopter of my front plate idea on her ostrich fans. So you might recognize a bit of this motif, however this more structural, rather than purely decorative, plate is getting added onto her pheasant fans. These recently landed to her, so watch her page for when they hit the stage! …
Bright, EXCITE! These fans are sure to bring joy to every stage they grace with @booger_boobs! Set of 2 fans each with 12 12″ staves with two layers of red hot and inside layer of hot violet.
For a look at these in action, check out @lavendelleburlesque’s recent birthday performance video! These single layers still look fantastically fluffy. They are a great, economical option for groups, troupes and shows. Sets match Flirt 2 in Antique on donnatouch.com/ostrichbasic.
This delicate color combo was the vision of @meg_mesmeric. It’s always fun to take the sketch into reality for these ombre sets! Set matches Standard 4 – Specialty on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich. Remember, for specialty dyes, I avoid recreating custom patterns without asking the original performer for permission.
Conversion with an upgrade for @pitbulls_and_poledancing took a simple double to a stellar triple! On my strong yet slimmer staves, they are even lighter than before even with the newly added top row. Flutter on!
In #Chicago, @phaedrablack was an early adopter of my DIY stave kits. I was recently able to take them back and give them a refreshed, professional rebuild. They are ready again for years on the stage!
Sword for swallowing done for @_cryptid_kid! This will take some additional practice, but is sure to delight (and if you’re me… terrify!) audiences soon! Full cut out of stainless steel, custom handle design by @katrina.inprogress polished to a delishly smooth edge. Can’t wait to see the top rhinestoned.
All new! This dramatic set (with new stave design and new color offering — Moody Violet) just landed with @basking.lizard in Canada!
Sometimes mistakes make for the best fans! @alluraflame ordered a set of Blondie (the inner color), but I messed up my counts. With Wheat also in stock, I really loved the color combo and we went with the two tones (not usually available with my basic and bulk options). So *happy* accident turned sweet set!
It’s been a while since I did an ombre plume, but this malachite like set is ready for the stages of Poland with @lolitavavoom! Set matches Standard 4 – Specialty on DonnaTouch.com. If you dream in ombre, it’s important to first accept that feathers aren’t ever going to be as seamless as a gradient print …
This beautiful raven black set will be hitting the stage soon with @roularoulette! Although the feathers are black, their exquisite patterning and iridescent qualities still play through. The set feathers 80 35″+ and 100 27-35″ lady am feathers across 12 of my flute staves.
@freyawest brought over a set that wasn’t getting much use. From sad in the bag, we did a conversion to the 8″ staves to get these a bit more dense, fluffy and lighter. The color combo is just so fun!
From rosy inspiration to feathery creation, these bright and fluffy fans just landed with @missrubymoon! Boas by @fancyfeathercom and on my aluminum staves. Set matches package Petite Dip Dye (plus) on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich
This color shift fluffy upgrade was done for @jean_heart5678! Assembled by @jahireen, the orginal double layer in white was already on my staves. Just adding the new top row of gold turns this set to a fluffy triple layer with a whole new look!
@tilavontwirl had amazing feathers, but heavy staves. So we gave them a fresh start! Assembled by @jahireen, we moved the feathers over from a clunky set of acrylics to my 12″ staves in almond. The set is even bigger, fluffier and lighter than before!
This is the sweet conversion done for @misscattywompass! Assembled by @jahireen, we moved the feathers over from a clunky set of acrylics to gold 12″ staves and gave the feathers a little manicure. The set looks new again and will perform better for years to come!
When Rainbow Feathers Las Vegas asked if I’d be interested in blacklight reactive feathers, my immediate reply was gimme, gimme, GIMME! Limited to these colors at the moment, I hope to test other brights with the specialty dye. But any plume fan configuration can be upgraded to use this dye. Thesw sets are 28 single …
Sometimes dreams are best in shades of grey. This gorgeous vision became fluffy reality for @jean_heart5678! Boas by @fancyfeathercom and on my aluminum staves. Set matches package Boa Large Dip Dye on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich
Set features 200 35″+ lady am center tails (lightened and then dyed grey) across V-stave set.
All 6 feet of natural beauty just landed with @cervenafox! The set feathers 180 35″+ lady am feathers across 8 of my scallop staves. I have an extremely small stash of these feathers and am the first one called when my supplier gets new stock in. So you’ll see a few more throughout the year, …
Set features 12 flute staves in vermilion 170 lady am center tail pheasant feathers. Size is about 38″+ at center. These two sets may be the only I make this year featuring the lady am center tails. I hoarded these feathers when my supplier was thankfully able to secure some for the project I previously …

Follow @adelewolf for more on the journey of her new routine that feature these fans. The flight path from idea to stage is not always straight and easy. It takes a lot of persistence and commitment to your vision! This set is features lady am center tails custom dyed in 3 colors on my V-staves.
This simply stunning emerald set just landed with @aylaylay_ in Canada! Boas by @fancyfeathercom and on my aluminum staves. Set matches package Boa Large Dip Dye on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich
Did you see feather fans during @usher’s Super Bowl halftime show? They weren’t mine, but we did support the performance! Got the call on January 30th and delivered February 3rd! When the fans originally ordered by the production company were stuck in customs, they reached out to me for help. We were able to supply …
Fans are an expression on stage and these done for @chloethecocaine have significant meaning. Chloe started working on this concept with her mum, the last one before her passing. I particularly love roses (my garden is full of them) because they seem to explode with all the beauty the world can make, but have thorns …
Unfortunately, after shipped to France, I’m not sure where these pieces were ever finally installed! Contracted by an international interior design firm, we created 15 custom ceiling or wall fans in 3 different diameters.
Epic corporate event with costumes, choreography and entertainment management by @black_haus_creative. Beautiful work by choreographer Omar Garibay. Performance took place in Las Vegas at Mandalay Bay. Special thank you to Maria Kent for selecting our fans and staves. For the project, we delivered 12 sets (24 individual) double layer plume fans in white.
It was a full fan team effort to get these level up sets out quickly to @obsessedintl for the #trixieandkatyalive tour! Thank you to @katdelac for recommending our staves and fans! Thanks to @katdelac for trusting me with the project! Couldn’t have done it without builders @dovbee and @olivia.arrow.dhamee. Not sure how we did it …
Back to @bellasincle, this boa set is actually usable now! A switch to my staves can completely change and enhance your performing capabilities! If you have a set on acrylic that lumber, a conversion to my staves can really salvage your boa investment, unlock your performance and make your fans enjoyable to work with!
Last year was truly a blur! This is yet another set done for @cervenafox that I apparently forgot to post. The set feathers 180 35″+ lady am feathers in blue and 80 short in black across 8 of my scallop staves. New ordering process for pheasant is available on my site at DonnaTouch.com/pheasant and hoping …
