Synopsis

One of a series of the most contemporary and up to date books on hat making around today. In this updated second edition of our best-seller, we show you the secrets of changing just a few kinds of ordinary feathers from domestic birds into the most exotic kind of head piece which looks as if it cost a million dollars! Find out how to dye feathers to just the colour you need to match an outfit or hand bag: how to combine them with fabrics - even how to make a tiny cocktail hat as a base which will show them off to perfection. No special equipment is needed, just a little time and some things you have around the house already. We tell you where to get the feathers and dyes you will need. All of our hat making books are written in an easy-to-follow style, with step-by-step photographs of every stage.

About this title

Review:

I would never have imagined so much could be achieved with feathers until reading 'Fantastic Feathers' by how2hats. The book simply inspires your creative nature and gives you the confidence to have a go yourself. Feathers can be dyed to an array of colours and shades then re-designed by burning, curling, knotting, cutting and remounting. Written in a straight forward easy to understand format and well illustrated, the 'hatmap' can be read as a book or mounted on the wall for quick easy reference. 'Fantastic Feathers' is a 'must have' invaluable resource for anyone who enjoys crafts as a hobby or for Milliners wanting to create unique eye-catching hat trimmings or fascinators. --Christine Cox
