No Sew Fairy Wings Tutorial Part 1 of 2

Published:
45.3K Views

Description

These wings took me about a day to make. I designed them for a special little girl (my cousin) for Halloween so she could be a fairy queen! They are incredibly lightweight and are durable enough to withstand all the energetic activities little kids do.

I like the elaborate butterfly wing design look, but personally suck at manipulating wire to get it. So I decided to cut the vein designs out of bristol board, and then reinforce the overall outline with wire.

This is also a no-sew method for those of you who find it a hassle to whip-stitch fabric onto a wire frame.

Questions? need clarification? Feel free to leave a comment and I'll do my best to demystify things for you ^_^

Looking for Part 2?


:star:OMG A DD?! For THIS little tutorial I threw together? I can't describe the level of elation I'm feeling right now. I'm really happy that you all found this tutorial useful and easy to understand. Happy costuming! :star:
