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!

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:
https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

*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.

Light & Bright Fairy Wings for the Summer Season

Summer’s almost here, and these white veined wings will be perfect for those airy light colored summer festival outfits! They will list Tuesday, May 20 at 8pm PDT.

Large painted iridescent fairy wings in berry colors with white veins. Upper panels are elongated with pointed tips, curved ‘tail’, worn on a dress form, front view

The first set is the Colette (above), painted in an 'Iced Berry' colorway on the clear Diamond Fire film, with white veins. They will be $495 plus shipping.

Large transparent yellow/orange/green iridescent fairy wings with white veins. Upper panels are elongated with pointed tips, 2 lower panels curve downward, worn on a dress form, front view

Large iridescent green fairy wings with white veins. Upper panels are elongated with pointed tips, curved ‘tail’, worn on a dress form, front view

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

Ready to Ship AND Made to Order Fairy Wings

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

Teal, blue and silver iridescent fairy wings with a spikey profile and antennae are viewed from the front, worn on a dress form

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.

Iridescent pink & orange fairy wings with silver veins, and tails on the bottom panels that curve upwards, worn on a dress form, front view

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.

If you need the link handy, here you go: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

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.
