<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">From the 1920s elegantly styled feather dresses and boas to the bohemian style of the 1970s, and burlesque dancers, it seems a little bird can make an impact on humans. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Just like furs, feathers can also come under the same scrutiny by the public and activists when used in everyday fashion. What often is overlooked by fashionistas is where the feathers come from, they just care about how they look.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Everyone purchasing feathers by designers or for their craft, need to understand where the feathers come from and how the birds are treated in the process. In my case if the supplier can't tell me these details I don't use them. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">While I agree with the ideas behind this <a href="http://magblog.audubon.org/fashion-die-how-feather-accessories-promote-animal-suffering">blog</a>. It doesn't cover the process of collecting feathers from naturally moulting birds. This is the process I favour with my creations. However, if a bird lives a happy long life and then the feathers are used, there is no harm, it is a tribute to the fine creature's existence to give the feathers a second life.</span></span><br />

New Designs!It's has been a while but I have been slaving away. I facebook much more than I get to blog! So after doing a fantastic resin course in Brisbane the other month I am on a resin high!! It is simply fantastic and if you are looking for something fun and creative to take up as a hobby I can't recommend working with resin enough!<br />
<br />
Here are some of my latest creations. I have also been working on a few more feather designs but they have gone direct into <a href="http://thecollectivestore.com.au/intro.php">The Collective Store</a> at Wynnum and also on some custom pieces. I have been flat out. I'm also working on my other label <a href="http://www.facebook.com/missrockabilly">Miss Rockabilly</a> so my spare time after work is pretty jam packed!<br />
<br />
I would love to hear from my readers what you think and what you want to see more of!<br />
<br />
I just have to update my Etsy store so persist with me for a while, but for all my latest happenings you will hear it first and see it first on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/noogalcreations">Facebook</a>. It's just so easy as I'm on there everyday anyway.<br />

I have many new designs to come and the year was looking very positive until the state I live in was devastated by floods.<br />
<br />
Lives have been lost and many businesses in Queensland as well as residents have lost their homes, cars and precious possessions. Even livestock had to fend for themselves and in some cases, family pets put down as they couldn't be taken with rescue efforts.<br />
<br />
This is why the Australian nation is banding together to raise funds for flood victims. While Queensland got battered with rain and floods, Western Australia has been fighting bush fires. The two extremes on each side of the country. Now not only has Queensland been affected by floods but parts of New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania have also been affected. And with cyclones looming off the Queensland coast, all eyes are watching for more rain.<br />
<br />
Now the clean up begins and it will take months for Queensland to get back to its original beauty. This is why I have supported the <a href="http://brisstyle.blogspot.com/2011/01/brisstyles-handmade-heart-beats-for-qld.html">BrisStyle Handmade Heart Beats for QLD</a>. I am a proud member of BrisStyle and the lovely local crafters in our area are kindly donating portions of proceeds from sales and even WHOLE proceeds of sales to the flood relief effort. So please pop over to the link and view some of the local crafters donating. I am also offering 10% of every Etsy sale in <a href="http://www.noogal.etsy.com/">Noogal Creations</a> to the flood relief. It is in desperate times that humanity shines through.<br />

After modelling the outfits there is also a talent section and I will be performing a 50s song. It is an exciting time and also nerve-wracking! I will keep you posted with results for Marilyn McSweetie and Peaches St Claire from the evening. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">My outfits that will be worn have been inspired by the gorgeous Bettie Page.
