Pretty Pink
Category: 12″ staves
Gold on gold
Done for Jezebelle Red
With feathers being a natural product, sometimes you have to listen to what they want to do. Originally planning for the 8″ flirt staves, these quills on these plumes were just too bulky. So I moved them up to the 12″ standard just mounting the top feather one position lower. This kept all the fluff, closer to the intended flirt size, but helps the fan open/close a bit more smoothly. The staves are gold bar and plumes are vintage gold from @fancyfeathercom.
Eros fan
Dasha Sweetwaters provided the sketch for the double sided Eros – the mischievous god of love, also known as Cupid – golden plates. The fluffy fan has 13 12″ staves in flag red, with a double layer of premium wide 25″ plumes in bright red from Rainbow Feathers.
Upgrade from bamboo
Really glad I got to help Miss Mina Murray with this lovely upgrade!
She had a set on bamboo for many, many years. They were a lovely row of single long plumes that were worth saving. As ostrich feathers age, they tend to get softer and silkier in their texture and movement. We moved them over to the top row of a set with 13 12″ staves and added a fresh lower plume in white from Fancy Feather.
The new set is a touch heavier, but much more durable for the long performance life ahead for this upgrade!
Turquoise Green
Web front plates
Lydia Wilts is the spider that’ll be hanging out on this web!
Package matches STANDARD 2 plus the front plate on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich
The fans feature 24 regular 12″ with a double layer of 18-24″ black plumes from Fancy Feather. The front plate is in bengal silver.
Cherry ombre
You have to see these in person to really appreciate their color and complexity. I brought them to Las Vegas and they stole @its.cherry.babyyyy’s heart.
The set features 14 12″ staves in flag red, top row and half inside row of premium wide 25″ plumes ombre dyed (from lower bright red to dark red tops) and shorter bright red front row. These were expertly picked and dyed at #RainbowFeathers.
White with silver
These fluffy clouds with silver staves soared all the way to Belgium landing with Colette Collerette.
Two sets of an upgraded Standard 3 (donnatouch.com/ostrich) with each fan featuring 14 12″ staves in Bengal Silver with double row of 18-24″ wide plumes in bleached white (brighter than natural white) from The Feather Place. Both arrived safe packed nicely in a large case!
Goth butterfly
This set of goth butterfly wings (as I nicknamed them) are ready to flutter on out! The gunmetal dye is complex with some strong lavender undertones. I’ve been wanting to do this color combination for a while!
This is built on the specs of PACKAGE 4 on DonnaTouch.com/ostrich
Each fan features 12 12″ staves in satin black, 12 front layer drabs sized 16-19″ in black and 24 plumes sized 18-24″ with the top row gunmetal and the inside row lilac from Fancy Feather

Bengal Silver
Silver conversion
The first set to ship in 2022 is this conversion for Angelica Lavalier which couldn’t be a more fitting start to the new year!
If you have feather fans on staves that have broken, hinder your performance or need a refresh, consider a conversion. Breaking up with acrylic can be the right step to take to salvage your beautiful feathers and advance your capabilities.
Violet
Each fan for this set featured 12 12″ staves in galaxy purple with a front drab, 12 25″ and 8 18-24″ plumes in violet from @fancyfeathercom. It’s like a smidge less than a full triple, but really nice density!
Fuchsia fluffy
An upgraded Standard 3, this set features 13 12″ staves and a flair accent stave in Gold Bar and double fuchsia plumes from @fancyfeathercom. The accent stave is encrusted by @boldburlesquepasties (light rose, light rose AB, Indian pink, rose peach crystal, light pink AB, and hot pink rhinestones, pink AB flatback faux pearls, pink paradigm teardrop claw set crystals and killer pink teardrop claw set crystals, and vintage, salvaged earrings and brooches).
Beautiful Beige
An upgraded Standard 8, this set features 13 12″ staves and a flair accent stave is Misty Burgundy and triple beige plumes from @fancyfeathercom. The accent stave is encrusted by @boldburlesquepasties (metallic gold, crystal AB, crystal, and metallic silver rhinestones, gold and white AB flatback faux pearls, and antique, repurposed floral earrings and brooches).
Sassy Conversion
Ready to hit the stage again! This set was a standard conversion (just moving feathers over from acrylics to my aluminum staves) done for Sassy von Straddler. Helps that her feathers are really high quality!
Swapped to 24 12″ staves in traffic orange, this set is now lighter, more compact, less damaging to the feathers and bigger (taller all around and more bounce separation between the top and inner back layer). These will be show stoppers for many years to come!
Standard triple
This adorable standard size TRIPLE layer won’t last long. Each fan features 12 12″ staves in misty pink and 36 18-24″ plumes in baby pink from Fancy Feather
Fireside Copper
Satin Black
Traffic Orange
White extra fluff
I should’ve taken video of these beautiful ☁️ level fans to show you all the difference photos just don’t capture. You’ll just have to Esira to hopefully catch them in action!
These fans each feature 14 of my 12″ staves in white with a 25″+ top and 18-24″ front premium plumes from Rainbow Feathers. Hand picked, these feathers add to the price but are the ultimate in length, width, fluff and luxury!
Pro tip: keep your white feathers bright by protecting them from the oil and sweat on your hands. Always practice with gloves. Cheap satin or cotton will do!
Mint rebuild
Ruby Spencer was an early adopter of my staves having purchased and built on the raw, spray painted versions years ago. I refreshed her set by stripping the paint, powder coating and reassembling in a way that layers the feathers in a better way. They are stage ready again!
Flamimgo
These flamingo wings are ready to take flight with Bizzy LeBois
Built on 28 of my 12″ aluminum staves in pretty pink, Fancy Feather did an amazing job on the two layers of ombre plumes and matching drabs. The dye colors and transitions really help make the layering so crisp and feathered wing like.
Patina Green
Chameleon teal
I’m naming this set done for Hazel Leigh the chameleon teal. A little blue, a little green… a lot of color in teal!
With 3 18-24″ feathers from Fancy Feather in teal across 12 12″ staves in southwest champagne, these offer great density for their size.
White double
The fans feature 26 regular 12″ and 2 accent aluminum staves in NEW color Class B Silver with 28 front 18-24″ plumes and top row of 25″+ in white from Fancy Feather. This is close to my Standard 3 package with the upgraded top row.
Peachy peach
Still trying to capture the illusive peach color in my studio, but these lovelies landed with Esme D’Avril!
Each fan features 12 12″ staves in freckled peach, peach drabs and a double layer of peach from Fancy Feather.
Upgrade with pheasant
Check out this wild upgrade for Nina La Voix!
Nina picked up a used set of hot fans and the lady am side tails to mount on 24 12″ staves in flag red. Even all in red, the pheasant really adds quite a cool detail.
Hot pink & white
Hot pink set for Sin Silva. Each fan features 12 12″ staves in white, white drabs and a double layer of hot pink from Fancy Feather.
Lilac & light blue
Killer combo for Mz. Jenocide! Still my favorite package across any color combo. Each fan features 12 12″ staves in alloy silver, lilac drabs and a double layer of light blue Fancy Featherc.
Drab/plume 14 staves
While a double layer is usually what most performers start on, this 14 staves drab/plume combo is a really nice, light and economical option if you like two colors. Each fan features 14 12″ staves, with front dark turquoise drabs and navy plumes from Fancy Feather.
Psychedelic baubles
Gigi Bonbon was an exceptional client!!! She came with a concept and the luxury of time. She had the cream front feathers and tip dyed inside feathers. Once we set the stave design, we finalized the rest of the color palette. Using Cricut vinyl, Rainbow Feathers then dyed the top row pink to gold tip feathers to match. The staves were powder coated in a cream, all the bauble circles cut on my Cricut Maker, placed before a final blast with clear spray paint to lock them in and then assembled. The fans collapse to the center and are on a short bolt to keep the feather fluff as back as possible.
This process took 5 months. And when I put it into text, it makes sense. Amazing takes so much… planning, brain, logistics, building… time. These are definitely one of the most stellar fan designs I’ve done. I couldn’t be more thrilled with the result!!
Mint and jade triple
Now with Isabella Ivy, this set turned out amazing! The color combo and mixing is just so great.
Each fan features 12 12″ staves, double layer jade plumes with front layer mint plumes from Fancy Feather.
Firestarter
From the smoldering ash, Iva Handfull’s firestarter fans were born!
I’m just kindling. These combusted from share screen and collaborative clicking. But who doesn’t like to fan the flames of a good drama?
This was an intense glow up that we might have to pull back a little on, but the fans are currently 14 12″ staves, double layer plumes with front layer drabs. The feathers were custom dyed by Fancy Feather to 8 different dye patterns.
Ivory upgrade
This upgrade for Babraham Lincoln turned out delightful!
From a pair of static fans, we were able to salvage the blue drabs. On 24 12″ skies blue staves, we added a top row of 30″ plumes and inner row of 18-24″ plumes.
Nude Double
Feather fans captured the world’s attention because they created the illusion that their dancers were nude. When Mia Preisser asked for a set in her nude, I knew I could deliver with a custom dye.
This fluffy double layer features 12 12″ staves in gold bar gold and 48 plumes custom dyed at Rainbow Feathers.
Champagne Triple
Ain’t she sweet? This set just arrived in Australia for Constantly Peachy
This fluffy triple layer features 24 12″ staves in freckled peach and The Feather Place 18-24″ champagne plumes.
Southwest Champagne
Passion Pink
