Hi my lovely Fae Folk! If you would like something extra special I now have a video showing you how to make fiber optic fairy wings :) kzread.info/dash/bejne/d3qdmJefc62YadY.html Or maybe you would like to make a faerie throne fit for a fae princess! kzread.info/dash/bejne/noZsztB9c86Ziag.html

I've made cellophane wings before, and they were so fragile and hard to work with especially with the heat gun trying not to ruin them, so I wanted to look into sheer fabric wings to make for my wedding this month. And this is just gorgeous! I'm using this as inspiration, even tho mine will be quite different in style. Thank you for all these ideas and techniques! Blessed be dear!

Love these wings, the best ones I've found to make mine. 🧚🧚‍♂🧚‍♀💓

I watch from the beginning to the end

I absolutely adore your wings❤ you have inspired me!!!

Absolutely the most beautiful wings ive seen...great instructions too, gonna give this a go

Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful fairy wings with us I watch from the very beginning didn’t wanna miss it how to build these beautiful wings

Absolutely gorgeous! I've been struggling with the base of my daughter's wings and how they sit on her back, your version is so clever! Thank you for sharing. 🥰

Been using this to create a set of wings for Renaissance Festival (which will hopefully be open next year). Tysm for the guide

those are beautiful

OMG THANKS THIS IS GOING TO BE PERFECT FOR COMIC CON

This was SO helpful, thank you, exactly what I was looking for. I was looking at making some cellophane ones, but I found this gorgeous organza material I wanted to use and there were like no tutorials for this! I appreciate you

The most beautiful wings I've ever seen!

That's awesome beautiful work and the wings look fabulous. When I was small (many many years ago) my mother's godmother used to make the hats/crowns for the carnival queens and bride diadems in Panama. thanks for the memories.

I love these wings, just beautiful! I'm creating a pair of wings for my daughter to wear to the Renaissance Faire and this gave me so many great ideas. Thank you. My daughter is going to be a Woodland Fairy, so we will be using more leaves etc. But I wasn't sure how to construct the base so it would sit on her back. This video helped me a ton. Thank you again, looking forward to more great tutorials!

Mine are based more on Will-o’-the -wisps. Nighttime faeries, sprites, also called ghost lights! So my paintings aren’t brightly colored but more like how we see colors at night- faded. Except the faeries are the nightlight! So they illuminate the area just a little. I absolutely love your wings! The flowers are such a lovely touch!! 😍

You know, one thing I wondered is, what would you think about make it where you're not using elastic but maybe rather cutting an oval out of wire and attaching it to the circle in the middle so you can seamlessly fit it under your bra? I love doing it this way since I found about it.

Its actually fence wire - but you want something that is a hard wire - not a soft or half hard. But you can definitely double it up for more strength :)

LOVE.... trying to muster the courage to make some fairy wings for my granddaughter and I. We'll be attending our local fairy festival for the third yr. and this yr. I wanted to add a really nice pair of wings to her costume. One question, where would I be able to purchase the type of lace you used, loved the small pieces you used along the veins. Thanks for sharing your wonderful techniques.

@LadyofFaewood

I buy my flowers and lace from a few places really, I think though a lot of those ones came from Ebay. But I also buy from Etsy, and Australian craft supply shops like Lincraft and Spotlight. You would be amazed though at how much stuff you can find on Ebay. Good luck with the wings :)

You are so , well,....crafty. I would almost never think of how to construct such a thing as a pair of wings. Where did you get a large amount of organza? What made you not choose black for the antennae? All the embellishments are lovely. The finished wings are wonderful. You should have been a costume designer in a movie studio. Thanks for sharing!!!

I got my organza from Ebay, and was quite cheap considering I could make a few pairs of wings - was $20aud for 10 metres. The antennae design was based on Brian Froud's sketches which has them as almost part of the wings which I love. So I made them the same colour and design. I was pretty happy with the result, but honestly was unsure at one stage how well they would come out. But I got a lot of compliments at the mythical markets :)

14 should be fine I would think, for heavy wings like the dragon ones I did you'd want the thicker 12 or 10 even but cello isn't heavy. Good luck with it 😀

Oh what a shame! But you never know until you try. My hot glue isn't heat controlled - it's a cheapy from Ebay. It worked fine for me and in the tutorial I mention using the glue on top of organza because it was thin enough for glue to go through. If it's not just do a bit at a time so the glue doesn't set before you can stick down the organza

what brand and thickness of wire did you use?

There's a fabric that is super floaty. It seems to hang in the air. I believe they make it in Japan. I want to make a set of fairey wings out of that. The only problem is it costs $100 a yard. 😳

Vraiment dommage que vous ne répondez jamais aux messages.... et que vous ne donnez jamais les dimensions dans vos tutoriels... je lâche l'affaire

Your wings are stunning but the music overlay drowned you out and was horribly distracting. It was like having the radio playing while watching tv. 🤯
