Using feathers as a source of personal or interior decoration is something which, once you start doing it, will seem so obvious that you’ll wonder why it took you so long to think of it. After all, feathers are versatile, varied, natural and relatively inexpensive, meaning that they can be applied in a vast range of situations and as the answer to any number of aesthetic problems.

The first thing that many people think of when considering using feathers as a decorative item will be jewellery.  Small items such as black feathers are excellent for fashioning into objects such as earrings. They combine style, with a sense of the natural world, which marks the wearer out as someone with a quirky sense of fashion and aesthetics and a commitment to making their own statements. It’s probably easy to visit a jewellery or home interiors outlet and find smaller items such as this which are made out of feathers.  Some people like to hang things such as dream catchers in their windows – symbolic items which also perform a uniquely charming decorative purpose.

In fashion terms, the most obvious use of feathers is in the manufacture of feather boas. These long, graceful stylish items call forth a forgotten age of style and glamour, able to turn even the most plain and dull of outfits into charming and original party wear. They occupy a similar position in the fashion and style spectrum as feather fascinations, which is to say that they are quirky whilst somehow at the same time traditional, allowing the wearer to dress up smartly whilst also expressing their individuality.

One of the most innovative and original uses of feathers is the recent adoption of wedding feathers as a matrimonial motif. They can be used to decorate virtually every aspect of the average nuptials. Using feathers as a motif can begin with the invitations, which might have a feather drawing or sketch incorporated into the stationary. Then the room in which the reception is held could be decorated with a huge range of different feathers – small white ones scattered upon the tables, larger ostrich style feathers hung on the walls and, as the coup de grace, feathers incorporated into the actual wedding dress itself. The fact that the motif runs through every single aspect of the day will give everything a unified look and feel and, what’s more, will ensure that it stands out clearly when compared with weddings which utilise more traditional and mainstream visual techniques.

Sourcing feathers in the UK is now easier than it’s ever been, as more and more people come to appreciate the value and appeal of a material which combines a touch of nature with a sense of innovation and style. Many manufacturers of decorative and furnishing goods are now incorporating feathers into their designs, meaning that you can pick them up almost without trying, and individual feathers are available from either specialist feather shop or outlets such as suppliers of arts and craft materials. Once you’ve started using feathers, you’ll want to incorporate them into a wide range of areas. From design and fashion to jewellery and furnishing, they bring a touch of the outdoors and the wild into every situation.
 
The uses of feathers are as varied as the sizes and shapes in which they come. What they all share is a feeling of style and originality, and an aesthetic which combines an attractive appearance with a sense of the tactile. Not only will you want to look at and admire the feathers around you, but every time you walk past you’ll want to reach out and touch them.
