1920's Speakeasy Peacock Feather Headpiece

HBO Sunday night shows are our thing.  Billy and I are quite obsessed with them actually - and now that Entourage and True Blood are over, we are gearing up for Boardwalk Empire to start next week.

It's really a coincidence that Boardwalk Empire takes place in Atlantic City during Prohibition and I just recently completed a Style Shoot entitled "1920's Speakeasy Wedding"...gotta love coincidences :>)

I'll post all the pictures from the shoot soon, but I wanted to share this DIY Peacock Feather Headpiece;
