Their feminine and floaty appearance looks wonderful in any room within your home and works particularly well in lavish bedrooms and dressing room areas. From classic bright whites to peacock blues, there is a wide range of natural and dyed feather shades to suit all tastes.

2. Cushions

Soft and sumptuous fabrics are a simple way to add textural appeal to your home interior. A scattering of cushions of your seating or bed will create an eye-catching focal point that oozes chic, luxurious glamour.

3. Rugs

A feather print rug is a great way of adding detail or pattern to your home interior without the need for wallpaper or art work. If you love a splash of colour and eye-catching pattern then opt for bold and bright feather designs such as a repetitive peacock print or a native american eagle feather design that will add a unique and stylish ambiance to your home.

For a more subtle and delicate effect then you can opt for neutral or pastel colour palettes with soft and whispy feather patterns that create a calm and relaxing atmosphere within your living space.

4. Art Work

Feather print artwork can make a great alternative to patterned wallpaper and will create a real statement centrepiece in any home interior. Subtle natural inspired designs work wonderfully in neutral or minimal homes whilst bold and flashy coloured prints will add a vibrant 'colour pop' design to any complimentary decor.

This look can be achieved using a simple selection of black and white card and paint or alternatively you can pick up your glue gun and stick actual feathers to coloured card for a 3D visual art effect.
