Pretty Peacock Accessories fit for a wedding!

Only getting round to posting pics of the really pretty Peacock hair accessories I custom made for a bridal party last week end; mother-of-the-bride, maid-of-honour and bridesmaid all have matching accessories, a clip, brooch and an alice band! was super happy with the way they came out - especially so because i have never made anything with feathers, or as complicated at the alice band.


I had great clients who knew exactly what they wanted which always helps. The alice band was based on one that Jessica alba was actually seen wearing out one day. Upon investigation there are so many awesome variations that have been made so my job was already half way done.

 My clients brought me all the raw materials; feathers, diamante's, and alice band, I only had to provided the brooch back and the special flat pin bobby clip for the single hair clip which also saved time and effort. Peacock feathers can be very expensive, so it worked out better that the client bought them as it works out cheaper for them!!

I have taken step by step pics so that you too can make your own pretties..will blog about it next week...watch this space!

Till next time!
