I am very impressed that I found this incredibly specific video I randomly needed, and it is less than 24 hours after it was posted. I think this is some kind of a record for me 😃. I am working with some feathers for a pirate hat and this is exactly the little boost it needed. Thank you so much for your efforts!!
Gotta love perfect timing, Right?!? Glad you enjoyed it!
We made a feather headdress for the first time yesterday (for a Heilung show) and found it to be much taller than expected, so I plan on using the hand method to bend some of those puppies down. Thank you...oh, and I like your frames! 🙂
WOW! Impressive - so appreciative:) She's so funny, but dang knowledgeable!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this wonderful video dear lady.
As an earlier period SCAdian dipping my toes into the utterly terrifying world of later period Germans... I'm madly in love with your videos. I couldn't stop laughing and it doesn't seem so scary now. Thank you!
I am an old fashioned retired hairdresser. I have worked with the oven heated Marcel iron's many times. When you don't have a Marcel oven you can do the following. When heating your Marcel curl without an oven you could simply make an oval shaped cylinder, the length of the Marcel shaft, with aluminum aluminum foil. Be sure to use at least 4 layers of foil. Then place that cylinder on your gas stove top. This will act as a Marcel oven. Place the Marcel shaft into the cylinder until it comes to proper temperature. You can test to see if it's too hot by placing a white piece of paper between the barrels of the Marcel iron. If it discolors the paper it's too hot. Just wait a couple of seconds and test again.
Thank you! That totally makes sense. i am going to try that!
You are brilliant, Margaret Redmond from Ireland
Thank you!
Woohoo!!! The problem with burlesque feather fans is that you have to use so many feathers, it gets expemsive quick. What a fabulous way to make them look more expensive!!
Such wonderful content!! Thank you for the tutorial 💕💕💕
Glad it was helpful!
First time seeing any of your videos. I do hats so its really nice to see a video that can help. Are YOU finding it harder to find quality ribbons and feathers ????? Im using what I have left but my supplies are dwindling. Thanks for any help !! ✌🏻♥️
Hi. I'm so happy I came across your video. I need to add feathers to my hair in order to take on the role of The Matron in a New Orleans Carnival Ball (in a week!). Do I need to curl them separately first, before attaching 2 together for fullness?
I would recommend sewing them together first. That way you can trim them afterward and then curl them. Plus you don't have to worry about flattening them out when you are sewing them together.
What do you do for dirty feathers ???
How do I stop ostrich feathers from frizzing overtime?
I made an ostrich feather lamp in earlier in 2020 and although it looks amazing, some of the feathers have lost a bit of shape and have started to frizz.
Any advice?
Try some steam, followed by a blow dry as you run your hand along them. The oils in your skin help to smooth the barbs.
Hello, I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge with video posts. I LOVE hats mostly the Victorian hats. I have noticed that the ostrich feathers that were used in the 1800’s were fat and thick and I’m not finding those wonderful feathers. Were the feathers back then made to be fat? How did they get such big luscious feathers for those gorgeous hats?
They definitely had great Ostrich feathers back then. When I have looked at vintage feathers, the fuller ones tend to have several plumes sewn together to give them that really full look. There is also a style of feathers that were "willowed" where they made them large by tying on additional extensions to every flue. They often used children to make them during the Victorian period because their small fingers were perfect for the job.
Same thinking here. I was wondering where the best place is to get Ostrich feathers ?????
how do you get them fluffy from pin straight fresh out of amazon
Steam and curl them
I use my hair strainers to curl my feathers
I tried but i just can't get it to work with the flat iron.
I wonder why most aristocrats back then always had ostrich feathers on their hat?
Great question! I do go into that a bit in this video ua-cam.com/video/whTzQWR3Jd4/v-deo.html
@@ThimbleAndPlume Ah, now i get it. Thanks! Maybe someday you will make a video about how to make Willow Ostrich Plumes, which is ostrich feather has been made longer, fluffier and more luxurious by having extensions tied to every flue.
@@Muhammad-tp8sf you flatter me. I don't think my skills are good enough to pull that off. I don't even know if anyone still does it. That skill may have gone when ostrich feathers went out of style. Although, if I could get my hands on one, I might have to try it.
@@ThimbleAndPlume you can do it, everybody can do it. But it takes a lot of PATIENCE and it consume a LOTS and LOTS of time. Period Costume Designer still does it though.
