Thanksgiving Tablescape Ideas

Hey everyone it is the week before Thanksgiving and I just wanted to share with you some amazing tablescape ideas for the holiday.
Of course if we are talking about them here they are going to be feather tablescape ideas but take a look at some of these sites and see what might work for your table.
First off this extremely simple place setting idea, it`s so simple that you can do so much with.
Just add some feathers an olive sprig and some cloves to the top plate.
 Here is a picture of how it can look.


Here is another simple way to add feathers to your tablescape, just place them next to the silverware.



This post that I found gives you the links to all the items to put together  this place setting.

Everything that is but the feathers.

The feathers used are pheasant feathers order them here.


Last is this beautiful tablescape that also puts the feathers on the backs of the chairs in addition to each of the place settings.





If you would like to add some feathers to your Thanksgiving table this holiday order them today.

Feather Napkin Holders For Thanksgiving

If you are looking to add just a bit more life to your holiday dinner table this year, you may want to consider feather napkin holders.

There are so many kinds of feather napkin holders out there that you will be sure to find at least a second post about them.

 But here what I want to concentrate on are the feather napkin holder ideas that are more directly focused for Thanksgiving. 

First up are these beautiful feather napkin holders with burlap and earrings.
Repurposed earring burlap and feather napkin rings.


Next for a simple and fun project for the kids to help them feel more a part of the holiday preparations you can make these Indian headband napkin rings with them.


Even though the plans for this set of pilgrim and Indian napkin holders’ call for felt feathers instead of real feathers, they are so cute that I had to show them to you.


And last off I bring to you this amazing place setting with a feather napkin holder along with a feather placemat.


This place setting is just a small part of a spectacular table setting that I saw at http://chickelalas.blogspot.co.il/2011/11/thanksgiving-table-inspiration.html


I you have any other beautiful feather inspired thanksgiving ideas please share them with us.

Abbey Crouch In A Feather-lined Sequined – Strictly Come Dancing

Strictly come dancing is the British television show where celebrities pair up with professional dance partners and compete in dance contests.

They mostly compete in ballroom and Latin dancing.

If you take a look at some of these pictures on dailymail.co.uk you will see some absolutely stunning costumes for the show.

Of course the question always is, is it the costumes that are stunning or is it the ones wearing them?

 There were two pictures that I saw that I just had to share with you.

Of course the first is the model Abbey Crouch with her partner Aljaz Skorjanec, here she looks fantastic in her feather lined sequined gown.

Then there is this one which juts made me smile.

 Mark Benton with Iveta Lukosiute.


I cant say why it makes me smile but it just does.

Vampire Costumes With Feathers

Vampires are always one of the big hits when it comes to Halloween costumes. But you probably wouldn’t think of feathers when you think of vampires and dressing up as one.

The truth is that feathers make an excellent addition to the vampire costume.

You wouldn't be wearing peacock feathers with your vampire fangs but black and red feather boas do go great with them.

Then again you could try out the peacock feathers with the fangs after all.
Take a look at this peacock feather vampire I found on Flickr.

this vampire feather collar that I found on lovechildboudoir.com is a stunning piece to give your living dead costume a bit of life.

Another great way to feather up your vampire costume is with feather eye lashes.
Take a look at these two sites that show you picture of exactly that.

Vampire feather eye lashes from elieesperbridal


Vampire feather eyelashes from Blind Mag



And then if you don’t want to be a vampire with feathers you can take this guys idea and be a vampire slayer with feathers.



Whatever it is you decide to do with your blood sucking feathered ideas post a picture or leave us a comment.

Feathered Angel Costumes

Get some great ideas on what you can dress up as this Halloween.

Maybe an angel.

When people think of Halloween most of the time people think of the ghost and goblins. But what about the 
angles? You need to have some angels to help you and give you guidance also.

Dressing up as an angle for Halloween is a great idea also.

Take a look at some of these great Halloween costumes that we found and let us know what you think.

Although Ka`s angel costume that made it into Rolling Stone magazine was not for Halloween but for the Burning Man festival it is for sure the best angle costume I have seen yet.

Then of course you have the sexy angle costumes. Of you have the two distinct types. The good sexy angle will typically have white feathers and blond hair. And the bad sexy angle dark hair and dark feathers.

And then I found this guy that can’t seem to make up his mind, but who cares he is having fun.


Last for this post you have the true angle here just to save the world

Whatever angle you want to be this Halloween you are going to need a set of wings.

Take a look at this post on how to make feather wings and just have fun.

Fall feather fashion 2013


Leaves falling on the ground and feathers blowing in the wind.

This fall season just before it starts to get really cold out you can add color and flare to your wardrobe with the newest in the feather fashion department.

“Feathers have been shown in so many collections fall-winter 2013-2014. Invariably, this comfortable material got a lot of attention and disputation” fallwinterfashiontrends.com

 Gucci and Dries Van Noten were especially feathery when they showed off their newest styles on the runways of New York and London.

Here are some of Dries Van Notens feather clad works.


Van Noten didn’t just put the feathers on his dresses but he also added a bit of feather flare to this bag.

And here you can see that Gucci took a bit of a more gothic style to their feather out fits.

Here are two pictures from the Blonds of New York Fall 2013 collection. They called this collection “Slasher Sashay” now how great of a name is that!


Don’t forget that you can add feathers to all of your outfits using feathers from FeatherStore.com.

Simply attach any of your favorite feathers to your clothing or wrap one of our feather boas around your neck to keep out that chill that the air has this time of year.
