DIY Fairy Wings HOW-TO and BONUS Costume Essential

Step 5Decorating!!!

Decorating!!!
next use your water based glue and paint brush to paint designs on your wings. only do little bits at a time and add glitter as you go along so the glue doesn't dry before you get to the glitter. i glittered the entire edge of the wings. not only does it help disquise the wire but reinforces the edges. you can also glue and glitter and spots on the tights that may have inperfections in them.

if glitter's not your thang, there are so many other things to embellish with...carefully sew in little bells, random strands of ribbon, feathers you've found, little crystals....that's the next pair i want to make. i just already had the glue/glitter and got the idea from the mass produced wings in the store and wanted to see how it would turn out. plus, i like sparkly.
