Apparently unlucky to have them indoors. Nice in door wreaths though. Don't think that counts.

Actually not....
A wise oriental lady once informed me that they use them indoors all the time.
Way back in the days before Adam was a boy, they used peacock feathers at funerals...as a symbol of eternal life...so the association with funerals is a 'life' thing and not a 'death' thing.
