I just opened my new feather jewelry shop! My shop features awesome handmade feather earrings, necklaces, and hair clips. I just opened, so check back frequently for more designs!

FEATHERS: My premium feathers are from cruelty free sources. All of my parrot feathers are from friends who own beautiful macaws and smaller parrots. These friends hand collect the feathers after they have been naturally molted, and pass them along to me.

HAIR CLIPS My hair clips are attached to a piece of recycled leather and can be mounted onto a small easy to open and close hair clip, small or large barrette, or a clear plastic comb. Most of my earrings can be made into a small hair clip, and cost 3/4 the price as a pair of earrings! If you would like a matching set of earrings/hair clip, but the clip is not listed, just send me an email and we can work it out!

EARRINGS You will love my awesome earrings! Most of my earrings are between 1.5-2.5 inches long, which is a very conservative length for feather earrings. They will sit nicely above your shoulder, and will provide wonderful color to your outfit. You will receive tons of compliments. I also have some longer earrings that hang just below your shoulder, you'll have to keep an eye out for them because I don't make them very often.

NECKLACES My simple necklaces look beautiful with any outfit. You can wear them to a wedding, a night out, or just out shopping, they are perfect for all occasions! I make my pendants in two different ways. Feathers are either attached to a thin piece of wood that has been painted black, or they are attached to a piece of cut leather. If you see a design of feathers on one medium, but you would prefer it on the other chances are I can create it for you. Necklaces are hung on a 18' piece of elastic cord. I really like the elastic, it is easy to put on and take off, and it doesn't tangle easily. If you do not like the cord, it will be easy to switch out for your favorite chain.

PILLOW BOX All of my small items (not the large feather combs) will arrive wrapped in a handmade pillow box. These boxes are made with thick recycled paper, and have been cut and assembled by me!!

The Craft Zoo


I was featured on The Craft Zoo


Last year I took my little sister Brittany to Portland. While browsing through every major mall in the city, we came across some great necklaces. I just fell in love, but I couldn't buy a necklace for myself when Brit wanted one just as badly. So, when I got back to California I did a small search for the artist and sure enough found his etsy shop.


This is my cute little necklace, front and back. Mark Poulin also make silver critters, which are way to cute. His packaging is absolutely amazing. You will love everything you buy from him.


I tried to make a light box yesterday. It does not seem to be helping with my feather photos. Any ideas?
