Bird Inspired Painted Fairy Wings and More

There will be a ready-to-ship flash sale this Friday, May 9 at 7pm PDT!

Brightly colored iridescent fairy wings in oranges, yellows, teals and blues with black veins, antennae along the top, worn on a dress form. Front view

I thought I’d give the warm orangey colors some love after focusing on the purple / green / blue spectrum for a while.
The Datura wings painted in the Bee Eater colorway are inspired by the bee eater bird's feathers! If you’re a bird lover, you can read more info about them here. Last photo shown is by Pierre Dalous, via Creative Commons.
I originally made them in an extra large size with gold veins for a client a few years ago, and thought I'd make another set in the standard large size. They aren't the colors I usually gravitate to but I think they're pretty eye-catching. They will be $490.

The second set shown are a set of Fauna wings with Guinevere bottom panels in Rose Gold with white veins. I converted the Gwen panels by cutting off the 'legs' that the old style of my wings had and drilled holes in the base so they could be made into the convertible style.
My drilling was a bit off though, so although they will still look like this, you'll want to use the middle and bottom hole instead of the top and bottom ones for the static assembly and of course as always you can cover the hardware with faux flowers. They will be $279.

These Fayette wings (above) in Opal with gold veins will also be available, in the simplified version without the additional intricate vinyl vein layer to make them more affordable at $349 rather than the typical price of roughly $600 for those extra veins. These have some very minimal irregularities in the vein color so I’ve reduced the price slightly further, though I don’t even know if you’d be able to notice.

Finally we have the Titania fairy wings in clear Diamond Fire with white veins (above) which will be $195.

I was going to try to squeeze in another set of wings but I may not make it in time. If that’s the case I’ll probably have another small drop next week.

As usual, the wing listings won't show up until the start time Friday, at this link:

Ready to Ship AND Made to Order Fairy Wings

Get ready for outdoor festival season with a fresh new set of fairy wings!

These Kira painted fairy wings in 'Ocean' will be available ready to ship, and I'll also have made to order listings since my clear vinyl showed it wouldn’t arrive till the end of the week. I ended up getting it yesterday, but since I already announced a made-to-order sale to my Patreon & mailing list subscribers I will still have some listed.

These Kira wings and others will list on Friday, 4/18 at 8pm PDT for $399.
Looking at them reminds me of sun reflecting off to ocean & makes me want to go swimming, if only I had access to a pool!

I’ll also have these Titania fairy wings in Blush with silver veins available ready to ship for $195.

I’ve been having trouble posting images to this blog this week for some reason, so I apologize if the rest of the Titania wing pics don’t show up here.

I'll also have a set of Colette wings with gold veins and Opal film (simplified version without the intricate vinyl veins to make them more affordable for $329 rather than $500) and a set of Fauna wings in the same colorway ($295), both repeats and ready to ship.

The wings I'm choosing from to offer made-to-order are for frames I already have cut and powder coated so the wait for production would not be a couple months or more like it usually is when I don't already have the frames finished.

Fauna, Black veins

Colette, Black or gold veins (I can make them without the additional vinyl veins more affordably)

Titania, silver veins

Fayette, gold veins

The MTO wings can be made painted for an additional fee and a bit longer wait, I would send an invoice for the difference when they’re close to being done.

The listings will show up after 8pm Friday, April 18 at 8pm Pacific Time.

If you're interested in a special order of wings directly from me and don’t need them right away, please go ahead and email me here as I'm finally catching up with previous special orders. The next vein color I’m doing will be white.
I realize people may prefer to tighten spending right now and only buy wings that are the right color or shape with the option to choose. It used to be that customers would buy wings and then build a costume to go with them, but if right now you need wings without splurging on new garb then I'm open to taking orders to help us both out. For single color wings, I can charge the price I last charged for them with a very small fee for customer service.
I can make painted wings for $500 - or $600 for the Fayettes.
Below is one of the special orders I've just finished, Aynia wings in the Pumpkin Spice colorway:

Also, I hope everyone is doing okay, and is safe during this hellish time in America. It's taking everything not to curl up into a ball & spiral into depression, but I have to keep working.
I had to take out a small Shopify loan in the beginning of the year to make up for the frozen sales & to give me time to work on the jewelry - which took much longer than anticipated.
And then, Trump happened. The TLDR is, I don't do well with daily anxiety and bad news, so I hadn't been generating enough income while my bills for all expenses are still going through and every sale I make takes a chunk out to pay back Shopify. I'm having to work extra hard to make money right now and still haven't been able to take my car in - plus, taxes.

All this to say, if you know anyone with extra who'd be interested in supported my endeavors on Patreon or would like to buy wings please share my info with them.
It's autism awareness / acceptance month and yet there's still no help for autistic people such as myself as adults. I'm at my limit with no relief on the way, while overseas sellers are still making tons of money off my designs. I hate being the one to always be struggling like this, but, that's my reality right now.
Stay safe out there.
