Don’t fall too hard in lust for these as they were done last year for @steph_sugar_! I can’t even get these feathers (hopefully) for a couple more months. On my V-stave staves in black, this set features 130 lady am center tail pheasant feathers just their beautiful, natural color.
This set flew up to @newfoundladto and @ritaanntique in Canada! The set matches Standard 1 on DonnaTouch.com with fireside copper staves and plumes in the color Bone. My FIRST ever fans used this color plumes. They were on aluminum siding I had hand cut with shears and drilled out. Every innovation has its wonky start! …
300 lady am on 14 flute staves Set features 14 flute staves in fireside copper, 100 40″+ lady am and 200 25-35″ lady am pheasant feathers. Size is about 46″ at center and 92″ wide.
If I had to name this conversion for @dottiemayduitt, I’d call it bright and happy! Luckily, Dottie had the 200 lady am sidetails (a mix of 27-30″ and then 30″+). This was a perfect amount to do across 8 scallop staves. I used the shorter feathers on the front so they’d add to the density …
@emmehayward will be pretty as a peacock with this new set! We started with the Standard 3 package (donnatouch.com/ostrich) with royal blue feathers from @fancyfeathercom and added almost 100 stem dyed peacock feathers from @thefeatherplace. The colors are just stunning, don’t you agree?
I wasn’t surprised how fast this unique set sold from my stories. Even as quick as they go, they always seem to always find their right performer! I coated the 20″ staves in copper for a rush order that then went a different direction. To salvage them, I asked @fancyfeathercom to do a copper ombre. …
Ready to tickle the keys with @jessicasunset? This upgraded set is a refresh for one of her signature acts. Each fan uses 7 of my 3-prong staves with 5 18-24″ plumes from @fancyfeathercom. The plates were tricky, but thanks to @coating.specialties_3311 for enlisting the help of a pinstriper for the fine painted on detail!
This bright set for @pinky_peacock packs a pink punch! Thanks to @fancyfeathercom for their work on the triple dip ombre.
A special set for @indianabonesburlesque is blooming! This daisy is quite the statement on the level up staves and 3 layers of plumes.
These fans for @bloodycrystalburlesque are oozing with drama! Black paired with a custom burgundy from @fancyfeathercom really is a winning fluffy combination.

Get in the sultry mood with this set done for @jean_heart5678! I was lucky to secure the 160 35″+ and 80 short lady am sidetails (red is darker in-person) from @happinesscathy late last year. If you’ve been following along, there is quite the feather shortage right now. I’ve been able to secure a few more …

We took another opportunity to show off our skills with this fan art accessory left with the @ditavonteese @glamonatrix_official tour! It was our exquisite business card! This handfan features custom dyed plumes from @fancyfeathercom, one of my bow handles that was encrusted by @boldburlesquepasties. This adorable prop is sure to tickle a lot of fancies!
Learning that @dirtymartininyc was on the @ditavonteese @glamonatrix_official tour, we took the opportunity to present her with some fan, fan art! This handfan features custom dyed plumes from @fancyfeathercom, my 8″ staves and the martini plate that was encrusted by @boldburlesquepasties. The show was AMAZING and it was a treat to say thank Dirty Martini …
Show ❤️ to your old fans and feathers! @misscattywompass did with this conversion and upgrade! Taking the lower emerald and purple feathers from a set on acrylics, we added a row of fresh forest green plumes from @fancyfeathercom. Assembled on my aluminum staves, these are bigger, lighter and more durable for years on the stage.
If you’ve been in touch with me about feathers in a particular color, you would’ve received “the talk.” When it comes to feathers, achieving a solid color is not possible. Feathers are naturally very reflective and toss a range of color no matter what. This set (matches Boa Petite Solid on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich) done for @bellablueforever …
Dark mysterious with a pop of color for @glampira_666! I really like using the black to gunmetal as a gradient. And the dark colors really sets off the pop of violet on the inside. Feathers from @fancyfeathercom mounted on my 24 of my 12″ staves.
This set was imagined by @thejensenloren as a unique fan take on a venus fly trap! The emerald and red plumes are from @fancyfeathercom, the venery reeves from @thefeatherplace and at the core are my 3-prong staves. The movement on these is light and swift. Perfect for attracting and devouring any audience!
This color — custom for @jolie.lolita — is even more lovely in person! Jolie sent a color swatch that @fancyfeathercom used to match for the custom dye batch. The feathers are lovely, the color is delicate and the staves will help this set float in stage!
Flirt vs Standard size side by side! Never exact because we always have to listen to the batch of feathers when they arrive, but flirt averages 25″ at center x 50″ wide while standard averages 30″ at center x 60″ wide.
Really enjoyed doing this set for @sallybdash! Sally had inherited a double layer set from a special friend and wanted to get them refurbished to be able to take them back to the stage in their honor. The feathers weren’t perfect and the dye sun faded in places, but still good shape. We popped off …
Another past project — refurbish + conversion — done for @madelinesinclaire! This set has new life for years on the stage! Starting with an old set of pink, well loved ostrich and marabou boas, we were able to pop them off and send them back to @fancyfeathercom for a wash and stunning ombre dye. These …
Another amazing set of boa fans that went to @catbolitho in the land down under! Set of 2 fans each with 12 24″ staves and 12 40″ 8 ply ostrich only ombre dyed from light blue to white from Fancy Feather
Catching up on some project highlights from last year still. @colette.collerette was actually in Chicago and was able to bring me her pheasant feathers that she needed on new staves. It was a lovely meeting on my back deck in the late summer when I think I was 8 months prego. Pop goes the baby …
PLUM – this color is elusive for me to photograph. Much closer to the close up photo of the color. I’m messing around again with packages, trying to get a boa set that is more budget friendly, but lush enough. These sets feature 24 20″ staves and 36″ 6 ply ostrich only boas from @fancyfeathercom. …
Unique aqua mint Periodically I have staves done that the color just isn’t a great match with the feathers. It’s too difficult to recoat them, so I put them aside to just do custom matches with the feathers. These sets feature 24 12″ staves and a triple layer of 18-24″ plumes custom dyed to match …
Unique true blue (a bit less purple than the photo capture) Periodically I have staves done that the color just isn’t a great match with the feathers. It’s too difficult to recoat them, so I put them aside to just do custom matches with the feathers. These sets feature 24 12″ staves and a triple …
Unique midnight blue (a bit darker than the photo capture) Periodically I have staves done that the color just isn’t a great match with the feathers. It’s too difficult to recoat them, so I put them aside to just do custom matches with the feathers. These sets feature 24 12″ staves and a triple layer …
Refurbished set with lovely large plumes! Blue is a little brighter in person, lots of depth and variation in the dye. Really makes them look like denim! Set is a double layer across 14 12″ staves.
