Feathers....the new trend??

Recently, my husband's teenage daughter told me that feather earrings were the "in" thing, although I believe she said...."they are cool, yeah!".  It is funny, because when I was a kid back in the 80's, they were the in thing then too.  Anyone remember feathers attached to leather cord that you would clip into your hair?  I don't know about you, but I loved them!!!  It is truly funny how trends always seem to make a comeback. 

Anyway, she told me that I should make some earrings with feathers so I decided to give it a try.  Because they are so trendy I decided to make them low cost by using surigical steel earwires and silver plated crimps.  That way, I could retail them for $5, a bargain for any fashion forward teenager!!  : )

Here are a couple samples of what I came up with.  I am thinking of trying to recreate the hair clip idea because I am sucker for that 80's fad....let me know what you think.  Would you wear this trend?  If you are a parent or tweenager/teenagers, would they wear the trend.  Please provie feedback.  I would love to hear from you.
