Black brocade & purple taffeta bustier top.
Two posts in one week! Unusual for me! I would like to get back into making other accessories & thought I put up a selection of previous items I have made!

Winter Woes!

Despite the terrible weather I'm still busy with feathers! Though hopefully next year I shall be extending my product range to include a small collection of clothes. Fingers crossed! Hats will still be very much of what I do however I have so much stock that I feel it's best to sell that off before making more, especially with the credit crunch looming over everyones' head. I'm trying to spend as little as possible!

Anyway, some designs to feast your eyes on. Remember most of my stuff is online to buy at www.stores.ebay.co.uk/peacockfancy & http://www.peacockfancy.etsy.com/

Busy Busy Busy

Hi everyone, hope you're all well. So my thumb is still causing me problems, i'm still under strict orders that I cannot go back to my beloved Ice Skating or Roller Derby SO I've been busy making some more fascinators. Luckily i'm allowed to exercise my thumb gently so fiddling about with feathers & net is probably just what the doctor ordered!



Some new designs, again for you to feast your eyes on. Either on http://www.peacockfancy.co.uk/ or http://stores.ebay.co.uk/peacockfancy





Totally unrelated to the world of feathers, but on the world of fur i've got the sweetest dwarf lop bunny babies ever! they are so gorgeous. Makes me more anti-fur than I've ever been infact - so I may do a new range of deluxe faux furs for this Autumn/Winter. Watch this space!

New Designs!

I've started working with some feathers in new colour tones to develope my range avaliable for weddings & occassion wear.
Here are some of the new fascinator designs coming soon to peacockfancy.co.uk!


Marabou & Peacock Fluffy Fascinator - I haven't thought of a name yet for this new design! Made from Peacock Eye feathers, fluffy Marabou feathers & Peacock Herl.I've curled the edge of the Peacock Eyes, something I've not experimented with previously and I rather like the outcome! It gives the fascinator a softer edge.
The Fuschia feathers can be replaced with alternative colour choices to match various outfits also so this is my new favourite piece at the moment!


Marabou & Peacock Sword Fluff -Again without a name! This fascinator is made from soft Marabou trim, Peacock Sword & Eye feathers and lovely spotty Guniea Fowl feathers. The Marabou trim comes in an array of gorgeous colours so again the fascinator can be changed to suit or match any outfit! Very fluffy! and looks gorgeous on!

Pheasant Paper Rose

New Hairclip fascinator added to Peacock Fancy's haircombs/fascinators range..
I love the little paper tea roses, they make pieces look so delicate and sweet. Also my favourite sparkling Swarovski crystals in emerald adorn this piece!
Made from Pheasant feathers & Coque feathers, chervon cut!

Thumb Woes

So I had a little accident on Monday at Roller Derby!
I ended up in a & e and to cut a long story short I've got a sprained thumb & it's in a splint! so despite the fact that I have more free time on my hands due to lack of ice skating & roller skating I've been a bit redundant because of the injury! It's incredibly hard to sew & make fascinators when one hand is unemployed!

Anyway I've managed a few new designs! Here is one of them!

Tubey Peacock!
