Friday the 13th Is a Lucky Day for Fairies

This Friday the 13th of June at 8pm PDT I’ll be having a small ready to ship wing sale.

Large iridescent fairy wings with antennae in blues, purples with touches of yellow and red, worn on a dress form, front view

I decided to mix it up a bit, and paired the Datura uppers with the Pansy lowers to make a hybrid, painted in varying shades of blue with touches of purple, pink, red & yellow.
They will be $465, and like the last set these have 2 total layers of vinyl versus the 3 that I was doing before so I could bring down the cost a bit and cut down a little production time.

I then paired the Datura bottoms with the Pansy uppers, done in Opal with black veins. Those will be $260.

I'll also have repeat colorways of the Titania and Kira wings, and that may be it for this sale.

Remember, the wings wont show up until the start time, Friday June 13th at 8pm PDT at this link: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

And, NGL I’m pretty anxious about this Saturday and what could happen if Tangerine Palpatine has another tantrum & decides to do something bonkers like declare martial law. I hope everyone has a safe & uplifting No Kings Day!

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I originally made them in an extra large size with gold veins for a client a few years ago, and thought I'd make another set in the standard large size.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.

Rose gold iridescent transparent fairy wings with antennae and tails on the bottom panels with white veins, worn on a dress form, front view

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.

Large transparent blue/green dragonfly-like iridescent fairy wings with white veins have 3 elongated panels on each side, worn on a dress form, front view

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.

Iridescent transparent gold / orange / green fairy wings with small tails & white veins worn on a dress form, front view

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:

Painted 'Pastel Rainbow' Fauna Fairy Wings

These Fauna wings painted in a pastel rainbow colorway with gold veins & Opal iridescent film will be listing Monday, April 28 at 8pm PDT!

Iridescent pastel rainbow fairy wings with downward curved tips, antennae and appendages, with gold veins, worn on a dress form, front view

They will be $490 plus shipping.
I decided on the rainbow palette since it's Autism Acceptance Month.
Autism Awareness Month & associating it with the color blue was started by Autism Speaks, which is known to be really problematic in the way their organization treats and talks about autistic people. So, many of us celebrate it as acceptance month instead, with rainbow colors rather than blue and instead of the puzzle symbol, the infinity symbol is used.
It's my first Autism Acceptance Month as an officially diagnosed person, and, I am in no shape to donate to any organizations right now. I'll spare you the sob story since I've already written about the sad state of my bank account, but hey if you buy these wings you'll be directly supporting an autistic artist - me!

Like my autism, the painted rainbows on these may not be obvious at first, and take a closer look at different viewpoints to see the full spectrum.
If you're new here, I'm very late diagnosed at 50 just last year. It was also through Kaiser, which I thought was impossible as it took years to get. Don’t let them tell you it’s not available, they can refer out for an evaluation for adults if they don’t have someone available onsite.

I managed to finish one more ready-to-ship set of fairy wings for the flash sale, these simplified Colette wings in clear Diamond Fire with black veins - without the extra vinyl veins.

Transparent & iridescent fairy wings reflecting yellow, orange & green with black veins, upper and lower panels are elongated with pointed tips, & curved up ‘tail’ on bottom, worn on a dress form, front view

They will be $329 plus shipping. I think I may start selling the Pixish Collection wings like this, without the vinyl veins while people are reducing their spending.

Let me also say, although the Trump admin is doing everything they can to belittle & scare us with their privacy violating autism registry, I'm not hiding. Fuck that. Knowing I'm autistic and being able to let everyone else know has helped my mental health & I think makes it a bit easier to be understood.
And if they ever round us up to put us in some camp, y'all better set up a big GFM to get me out!
I hear they're walking back on that registry now however, after activism & outrage over it, but they're still 'investigating' the cause of autism and will probably collect information from health insurers to do so. In other words, they're probably going to somehow (wrongfully) conclude that vaccines cause autism so they can restrict access to them & carry out their eugenics plans. Denying covid is a part of that as well - disabled people have been viewed as disposable, and BIPOC people too.
Do you remember how when news came out about how not only medically vulnerable and autistic people, but BIPOC people are also more negatively affected by covid? And after that officials stopped trying to contain it & everyone's masks started coming off even though the vaccines can't fully prevent infection? Yeah I think there was a reason for that.

Anyway....

A quick note for those in the EU who want to buy wings - I can’t ship to the EU anymore due to their new requirements to hire a broker, etc, but I’ve learned there’s a service called AddressPal that can give you a US address for purchasing, and they then forward the package to you. It does NOT exempt you from any customs fees or import taxes, but they handle all that red tape for us & take care of the customs stuff! I’ve had a customer use it and it worked just fine.

I've also dropped off a batch of wing frames to get powder coated in white, so if you've been waiting for white veined wings keep a close eye out for flash sale announcements in the next few weeks. I'm also open to a few special orders right now as well as I’m catching up on previous orders, and will be getting more frames cut very soon so if you have any requests please get in touch.

There are also still made to order giant wings.
You can find those, and these new wings after 8pm Monday here: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Additional Wings for August 1st

Alright fairies, here are 2 additional sets of wings that will be listing in the sale tomorrow, August 1 at 8pm PDT.

Subtly iridescent fairy wings in earth tones with lots of detailed copper veins, worn on a dress form, front view

The first set is the Colette design, painted in earthy tones with bits of blue and purple, laminated on the Patina Green film with copper veins. This is the first time I'm making these with copper veins, and the thinner painted veins don't match the actual veins 100% because with the reflectiveness of the copper it looks like a different shade depending on your angle and lighting. But I think they turned out neat regardless. They will be $499.

Next are the Cosette wings.

Large spikey iridescent purple & blue fairy wings with black veins and antennae, worn on a dress form, front view

This time I laminated them in the Dark Crystal film and without the usual additional layer of vinyl veins so I could price it more affordably at $399 rather than almost $600. I also put some tatters & holes in these, they'd be perfect for an unseelie fairy or for a goth look.

I'll also have a listing for a repeat set of Datura wings with silver veins, also in Dark Crystal.

Please see the previous post for photos of the Fayette wings that will be available.

Remember that the listings won’t show up until the start time at this link:
https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Ready to Ship Fairy Wings Flash Sale Monday May 6 at 8pm PDT!

This is a teeny tiny wing sale, with two sets of painted wings, ready to ship.
This set of painted Colette wings in pink and black, laminated onto the Blush film, will be one of them.

Front view of pointy tipped pink & black iridescent wings in with black detailed veins, worn on a dressform

The other set will be the Pansy wings painted in the Water Lily colorway but this time, with gold veining. I really do love the gold veins with this palette!
And again, I’ve reverted back to the original gold powder coating on the veins because as lovely as the candy coat gold looked, the coverage was inconsistent and that coating cost me double. The other metallic gold that I changed to in order to match a gold vinyl better for the Pixish wings ended up not matching it as well as this gold does once the vinyl is actually applied to the iridescent film.

And that’s that!
Remember, the listings won’t show up until Monday, May 6 at 8pm Pacific Daylight Time.

Ready to Ship Fairy Wings Sale Monday Dec. 18 at 8pm PST!

One more little sale before the Xmas holiday, featuring these Pansy fairy wings painted in shades of green with black and purple & fuchsia accents.

These digitally hand painted Pansy fairy wings have been revamped into greens with fuchsia & purple accents, for a colorway I'm calling Absinthe & Amethyst. They will be $479 plus shipping.
All my painted wings now have 2 additional layers of vinyl for extra durability & water resistance, but I can not promise they'd survive being submerged in water.

I will also be listing Aphrodite and Datura fairy wings in repeat colorways. Sale date and time is Monday, Dec. 18 at 8pm Pacific Standard Time. Remember, the listings won't show up until then. Here's a handy link that will take you straight there: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Ready to Ship Flash Sale Sunday Dec. 3 at 1pm PST!

In this flash sale I’ll be listing at least 3, possibly 4 sets of painted fairy wings (will update that number later today) which will include these Fayette wings from the Pixish Collection, done in the ‘Water Lily’ theme with greens & blues and touches of pink laminated onto the clear Diamond Fire film, with gold veining. They will be $590 plus shipping.

The next set of painted wings are the 26 inch long Trinket wings with the Celestial theme laminated onto the clear Aurora film, and chrome silver veining. These ended up with a bit more wrinkling on the back than usual so there will be a small discount. I’ve included some close-ups of what that looks like in the front and back, you can see that it’s not really apparent in the front so I don’t really consider these to be defective enough to re-do them. Sometimes the wrinkling happens after I’ve laminated the film possibly due to not enough tension in the process of laminating.
They will be $480 plus shipping.

These Elvina wings painted in the 'Blue Dream' color theme, laminated onto the Ultraviolet iridescent film with silver chrome veins will be listing tomorrow as well. They’ll be $490 plus shipping.

A set of the Colette painted wings in the green Absinthe & Arsenic colorway, laminated onto the clear Diamond Fire film with black veins will also be listing. These photos are of the set I made for a customer’s order previously, the ones listing Sunday will be the same. They will be $510 plus shipping.

The wings are all ready-to-ship but will be shipped after Wednesday as I’m out of the packaging for them and waiting for them to be delivered. There might be a set or two of un-painted repeat wings but I’m still deciding whether they should wait till the next sale.

As I’ve mentioned before, the painted wings now include an additional layer of clear film on top of the print for extra protection, water resistance and durability. However, I still haven’t tested them under water so I can NOT promise they would survive a swim or underwater shoot. As always, they are digitally hand painted by me and printed onto a layer of vinyl.
