Baby Blue Jays

These darling feather wings were a custom order for a photographer in Canada. I had an absolute blast painting all the feathers to look like a real blue jay. You'd never guess it, but all of the feathers started out powder blue.
These are my first baby angels, scaled down in size for infants.

Soooooo.........

Yeeeeaaaaahhhh.
Well, obviously, my plan of trying to get three blog posts in a week in April didn't happen. Or in May...or in June!
So I've been busy!
First came the Maryland Faerie Festival, which was a blast. Then came an interesting stack of custom orders that I am still weeding through. Then there was the wedding planning, which is still trucking along. Now I am laid up with a sprained wrist (right, which is my current dominant hand) so just about nothing is happening, even though it should be!

I have a ton of new pictures to post in my flickr gallery, and some really fun new custom orders to share with you. This is a custom pair of cellophane fairy wings that I created to specification for a lovely May bride. Theses strapless wings are a little under 5' in height and are around 2.5" wide.

Deviously Planning

Soooooo, there went October!!!
This was a most amazing Halloween season for me, and I would like to thank all my wonderful customers for their love and support. I lost count of how many wings I made for custom orders, which was just overwhelming for me that so many people wanted to wear my creations.
Thanks so much!

I took the day off yesterday to recouperate, and in a day or to I will hopefully have some pictures to show you so I can tell you about MY halloween (which was awesome despite the rain!).

For now, I am turning my concentration to my AMY BROWN FAIRY COLLECTION, and a potential show I may do in December.
More to come!

Custom Luna Moth Wings

Just finished this gorgeous pair of Luna Moth wings for a lovely lady in Canada to wear to Faeriecon this year. Lunas actually have reddish purple veins and outer edges, but I made them navy blue this time to match her dress.

Custom Strapless Fairy Wings

Just finished these gorgeous wings for a custom order. This fairy is going to pair these wings with an exquisite teal gown for her Halloween costume this year.

Just Finished: Customized Small Fairy Wings

This pair of small fairy wings in my Hilary design were customized for a little girl to wear to her mother's wedding. The white edges are a little unusual for me, since my standard is to paint the edges a darker color for contrast. This time, I painted the inside and left the edges the white of the fabric.

Ordering Custom Wings Just Got Easier!

After receiving several requests for custom wings for flower girls and brides, I decided to add a way to easily order custom wedding wings from my FairyTaleWedding Etsy store.

Customers can now specify their desires based on the following criteria:

1. The base fabric color-I use organza and crystal organza for a sturdy wing base, and it is available in a rainbow of colors. (a color chart of available colors is forthcoming, but I can also do special buys if you are looking for something special).




2 The painted edging color-I can airbrush the edging to match just about any color as long as a good color swatch is provided.








3. Ribbons-these are the straps the hold the wings on, so you can pick a color that matches the wings or the outfit you plan on wearing (or go strapless, +$10)







4. The back decorations-I use a variety of items to decorate my wings including silk flowers/leaves, all sorts of feathers, gems, and fabric paint. Please be specific in your description of colors or the style in which you wish your wings to be decorated.





At the moment I have all five of my small fairy wing designs available and my Bella large fairy wings-one of my most popular designs. I will be adding more just as soon as I finish editing some pictures. And as always, I am more than happy to create custom wings to fit your needs!

Mini Wings!

These Mini Wings are a prototype for a custom order, based on my Annora small fairy wing design. The purple one is a clip and the other is a foam back sticker. Each tiny pair of wings measures 3" across and is 1 1/2" tall. They are so cute! I think I may start making hair pins
