Google the name. I got this website Christine Yarker - Millinery - Fascinator Workshop (http://www.christineyarker.com/page9.htm)
Her email address is listed and it sounds like she would be able to help you.

If you are asking about the hat or head scarf type, then here is another link with the instructions below.
Astar's Hat Tips & Elegant Hat Instructions- Oct 26, 2006 | GOOD MORNING 2006 | TV ONE | tvnz.co.nz (http://tvnz.co.nz/view/page/410965/869707)
1. Plain hat - one that suits your face, or a fascinator hat which is a small base like a Priest or Jewish cap that has a hair clasp already fixed and fits comfortably onto the head. How easy is that!
2. Tuelle or net.
3. Hot glue gun - makes creating so much faster and easier&
4. Needle and matching thread - for hand sewing accessories
5. Feathers and or artificial roses
Method -
1. Full head hat -
With matching, toning or colour contrasting tuelle, hand stitch around base of hat, then simply attach feathers, roses and trim in a pattern to suit.
2. Hat utilizing a fascinator base -
Fan, puff, or pleat net or tuelle then hand stitch to fascinator base. You might like to have net positioned to part cover your forehead and eyes or make an over sized bow placed at the side, back or front of base.
Then fix feathers and other accessories in a design best suited to your face shape.
The sky is the limit really, so just let your artistic imagination gather force and flow.
Happy creating Astar
