"Created with imagination, inspired by nature.
Handmade from the heart."
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dannielle Kukar, founder and main designer at Featherheart - handmade fashions from the heart.
A professional graphic designer and art director with top-notch credentials, Dannielle is a vibrant individual whose magnetic personality quickly draws you in and makes you feel at ease. As we chatted over coffee at Starbucks in the Promenade, Dannielle told me about her fascinating life and her inspiration for Featherheart.
Dannielle has always been an artist, having held positions as a fashion illustrator and silk screener. In 2009, she discovered a love for millinery, or the craft of designing and manufacturing hats, especially for women. Beginning with smaller pieces, Dannielle soon developed a line of more intricate fashions. Her thorough understanding of fabrics and garment construction combine to make her customized designs sophisticated, beautiful, and timeless.
Dannielle works closely with her brides, guiding them through the process of color and fabric selection. Based on the bride's dress and color scheme for her wedding, Dannielle will even recommend FeatherHeart headpiece enhancements for her bridesmaids.

"I love weddings, especially someone else's! I get the pleasure of making the bride gloriously happy, with none of the additional stress that she'll be exposed to. I also enjoy the fact that the piece I make for her will lessen that stress. After all, a beautiful headpiece enhancement to her wedding dress is something she won't have to WORRY about."
Stay tuned for a follow-up feature. As Dannielle concludes, "I can't wait for FeatherHeart to be a part of your special day!"
