New Pansy Painted Fairy Wings in 'Iris'

Happy Fairy Friday! This set of Pansy wings painted in the ‘Iris’ colorway with lush aubergine purples, magentas & blues will be available ready to ship on Saturday May 31 at noon PDT.
There will also be a made-to-order sale on Sunday, June 1st at noon!

Iridescent fairy wings with a butterfly-like shape and short 'tails' in purples & blues with touches of pink & orange, back view

I usually start posts with the front view as the main photo, but this photo of the back had such a beautiful mix of colors that I had to make it the star! Don't forget to click through to see all of them.

These are the Pansy wings. I'm calling this colorway Iris, which has the same kind of color patterning that the Water Lily ones have but with rich aubergine purples & fucshia, touches of blue & bits of orange in the 'eyes'. It's definitely one of my favorites and I hope it's yours too.
This time I tried it without that extra 3rd layer of clear vinyl on the print, as this new batch seems to dry faster without any tackiness and it worked out fine!
It is costing a little more now so it won't be a huge price difference, but I'm able to bring it down to $450 plus shipping rather than $490. It also doesn't take quite as long to laminate which is a bonus for me & allows me to lower the price a bit.

These will be listing Saturday, May 31 at 12pm PDT ready to ship.

I wanted to have more wings to offer ready to go, but I was working on orders that are due and ran low on vinyl before I realized it. It's on the way but I won't have it till Monday.

So, I'm going to have a Made-To-Order sale the next day on Sunday, June 1 at 12pm where I'll have Datura, Fayette, Cosette, Kira and Titania wings.
I may offer the Kira wings as painted and allow the option to have the others painted with an additional fee. The Cosette would cost more to have painted though. The older cut file got used, and that version has a bottom panel that's too large to do a print from my printer so I'd need to send out for a print for it.
I have to make a giant set anyway that I'll have to get printed from that vendor so I can do them both at the same time if you really want those.
They'd be $600 painted.
I think I'll try making painted wings without the extra layer from now on unless it's requested in a special order, so they can be a little more affordable during this tariff roller coaster we're all on in the US.
I'm still on the struggle bus myself and would rather they sell than sit here.
They'll be listed at their ready to ship prices, with black veins.

I'm also almost caught up with special orders, there's only 3 left, with one of them still needing a color choice from the customer, so I'm open to more special orders.
I have black veined frames right now of all the designs listed above, gold will be next, and then I think silver or copper after that.

Below are the new prices for painted / printed wings if you choose to upgrade from the MTO black veined listings:

Datura (would be $450)

Fayette (would be $550)

Cosette (would be $600)

Kira (would be $360)

Titania (would be $350)

Remember, the listings won't show up until their start time.

The Pansy 'Iris' wings will list on Saturday, May 31 at 12pm PDT.
The made-to-order wings will list on Sunday, June 1 at 12pm PDT.

They will be available here:

*If you've been waiting for your wing order, they are done or nearly done - I only have one to fully laminate and one that needs the lower panels finished - but I'm waiting on the vinyl to arrive as well as the inner cardboard padding for shipping. For some reason that cardboard stuff has been out of stock everywhere locally and taking a long time to ship, but it's supposed to show up Monday.

Made to Order Fairy Wings Sale Monday July 1 at 8pm

I’m having a small MTO wing sale tomorrow!

Large purple / blue iridescent fairy wings with antennae along the top, with silver veins, worn on a dressform

Since I only have one wing box left for the painted Pansy wings (still available ready-to-ship btw!) and I won't get more in till later next week, I'm having a made-to-order wing sale.

The Datura wings (shown above in Dark Crystal with silver veins) will be available with silver veins and your choice of film color for $329 plus shipping, the Pansy wings in your color choice also with silver veins will be $300 plus shipping, and there will also be a set of Cosette wings in your color choice with black veins for $590 plus shipping.

You can choose an upgrade to make the Datura or Pansy painted for an additional fee, total before shipping would be $500 each so you'd pay the difference before they ship. Please choose 2 main colors for a simple painting (color fade from base or edges, or a gradient of the colors, an 'eye' spot can be added) or a repeat painted pattern that can be in a new colorway. When it comes to wing painting, it works best when I'm allowed creative license with some freedom in how I put the colors together.

So again, this made-to-order sale will be this Monday July 1 at 8pm Pacific Time on my Flash Sale page here: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Remember they won't show up until the start time.
I hope you all are having a fairy-tastic weekend!

Made-to-Order Fairy Wings Flash Sale Tonight, Wed. 3/17 at 8pm PDT

I’ll be offering a selection of wings with pre-determined vein colors in your choice of film color - except for one set. These Pansy wings painted in the Water Lily colorway are being offered not as ready-to-ship or a true made-to-order, but as a pre-order.

Pansy wings in the Water Lily colorway (as shown above) will be a pre-order for a very slightly defective set .

The photos above are of a set of Pansy wings in the Water Lily colorway with black veins I made for a customer. Now, since I also ran into a problem with one of the Water Lily panels having a small hair trapped in the film (I blame the cat!) I replaced that panel for this order but kept the one with the hair in case there's interest in a discounted set that's a duplicate. I'd much rather offer another set at a discount than tear off all that vinyl and waste material, so I'll be listing these in tonight’s sale as a pre-order for this specific set to be made with a $39 discount due to the small stray cat hair and I’ll finish making them if they sell (they'll be $450 plus shipping).

Below are 2 photos of the panel with the trapped hair, it's more visible at some angles than others and is located just outside of that small white / clear oval near the tip of the upper panel.

All others you can choose the film color, or painting colors for painted wings, but not the vein color.

Colette 'Pix' wings, painted or single color with vinyl veins for $500

Cosette 'Pix' wings, painted or single color with vinyl veins for $589

Goblin Princess wings in a single color with black veins for $300

Datura wings in a single color with gold veins for $319

Nightshade wings in a single color with silver veins for $275
Shipping costs are additional.

Remember, the listings won’t show until the 8pm start time tonight, Wed. April 17 at 8pm Pacific Daylight Time at this link: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Small Made-To-Order Fairy Wing Sale Sunday 5/15 at 1pm PDT

There will be only 3 sets of fairy wings listing tomorrow at 1pm Pacific

Now that the previous wing orders are almost done being powder coated and getting closer to completion, I can offer these 3 designs with pre-assigned vein colors:
Elvina with pearl white veins
Ivy with pearl white veins
Datura with silver veins

These will list at 1pm Pacific Daylight Time this Sunday, May 15. Price averaging between $350 - $375.
My apologies again to those who have been waiting on their orders (I've individually notified everyone of the delays). Due to the new higher batch minimums with the local powder coating company I use that happened after I sold those made-to-order wings, as well as some delay on getting vein color preferences from customers, I will probably have to limit made-to-order listings to either 1 or 2 vein colors I'm already getting frames coated for so these delays don't happen again.
Some of that delay was also due to health issues & injuries which I obviously can't predict, but I have physical therapy appointments set up and am simply having to avoid certain tasks that my muscles & joints apparently can't handle.

This little batch of wing listings will probably get done in a shorter amount of time than the previous group only because the frames are getting coated all at the same time and powder coating is usually where the delays happen. Since these will be finished with coating next week, you might get them faster than listed but I can’t guarantee it 100% simply due to this never-ending pandemic and the possibility of unexpected issues arising.

Remember, the wings won’t show up until the listing time, and they usually go fast so be ready early! Here’s a link: Flash Sales

Extra Large Made-To-Order Fairy Wing Sale Friday 3/4/22 at 8pm PST

There are a couple designs now in the Extra Large size for the first time, and you’ll be able to order them in your colors on Friday, March 4 at 8pm PST!

The photos above are the Extra Large Ellette wings, shown here in Dark Crystal with black veining. These and the other new XL designs are on their way to the Houston Grand Opera for their upcoming production, and since I always cut additional frames in each batch that means I have more to make into wings for you.

Below is the Extra Large Aquatica design, shown here in the Neon Yellow film with black veining.

I’ll also have a set of Extra Large Pansy wings listed, which I’ve offered before.
They will each be $725 plus shipping.

Also, I’ve reduced the price of the Giant Pansy Guinevere wings that are in the shop right now if you need something even bigger!

Remember, the new listings won’t show up until 3/4/22 at 8pm PST.

Stay tuned for more news tomorrow

Small Made to Order Fairy Wing Flash Sale Tomorrow, March 14 at 7pm PDT

That’s right, you’ll be able to choose your film color and either black or white veining!

ElvinaClearBlk_3387.png

The Elvina design (above) will be available, as well as at least one of the Datura, Nightshade, Aquatica and Colette designs. Each will be priced $75 higher than their ready-to-ship pricing to account for the additional customer service time usually involved with orders that have choices available.

Below are those other designs in the order I named them. You can also use the search function in my Shopify store to look up those designs in other colors. The vein design will be limited to black or white but the film color can be any of the films I have on hand. Please note that the Aquamarine has been replaced with the Absinthe film, which is very very similar.
