Real Metal Fairy Wing Jewelry is Finally Here!

My original fairy wing designs have been cut out of brass (and silver nickel too but that a later batch) so I can now offer you necklaces and earrings. Clear resin is applied to the wing charms, with iridescent film on the back for a beautiful jewel-like finish. These will be listing tomorrow, Saturday July 31 at 6pm Pacific Daylight Time.
This first set is the first run, which had flaws and some missing veins due to how very thin I made them. This also makes them special, because I won’t be making more as delicate as this once I use up the ones in this cut batch - the official runs will be made with slightly thicker veins, and less veins on the Colette wings.
What I consider a flaw though, also makes these appear more life-like an delicate.
These are not made for children, due to some pointy ends and some areas on the Colette styles where the resin has very thin cracks that could make them scratchy.

Above are the 2 versions of the Colette fairy wings necklaces.
Main photo is of the upper panel of the design, finished with brass filigree, green glass & antiqued bronze beads and a rose gold plated chain.
1st photo in the row shows the lower panel from that same design, with green glass & brass filigree and brass plated chain. Both backed with the Absinthe iridescent film.
3rd photo is of the Kira upper wing design backed with the Opal film, accented with rainbow anodized star and iridescent indigo glass beads & brass filigree.

There will be 3 of the Colette small necklaces, 2 of the Colette large necklaces and 2 of the Kira necklace.

There will also be earrings!

Below are the celestial themed Datura wing earrings. 1 available with an 8 pointed star charm, 2 with brass filigree, and 2 with a 5 pointed star. Ear wires are iron with brass plate.

The larger Colette and Kira necklaces will be $59, the smaller Colette necklaces $49, and the Datura celestial earrings will be $65.

Accessories Flash Sale Tomorrow, Friday Sept. 4 at 8am Pacific!

Surprise!
Well if you are a Patreon patron it’s not so much a surprise, but usually I like to announce things more ahead of time.
Tomorrow, Friday 9/4 at 8am Pacific Daylight Time, I’ll be listing all of the pieces below - 2 crowns, 3 hair combs and 3 each of the dark and light crystal Nightshade necklaces.

I’m never sure if any of these accessory pieces will be repeated because sometimes the specific settings & findings are unavailable after I’ve used a small batch, but I can tell you now I won’t repeat those tiaras exactly. That brass stamping was torture to solder to the metal band and although some of that was my own inexperience with soldering these types of things together, much of it was that type of stamping with no flat areas in back of it is just plain difficult to solder especially for a piece that needs to flex to be worn.
If it weren’t for an opportunity that unexpectedly came up, i would have jumped ahead by now to getting my own crown design cut from metal and am still moving forward with that.

Next time I offer crowns, they should be completely original pieces with a few added commercially available embellishments like jewels and their settings.

Dark Crystal Inspired "Nightshade" Fairy Wing Necklaces

I’ve tried a new thing with my mini wings!

I started on this project last year around the time The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance came out and these necklaces are very much inspired by the movie and series.
But, life got complicated and so like many of my developing projects they got put on the back burner for a while.
This is the Nightshade wing design, which sprung from my older Kira design. The wings are iridescent film and acetate that's been embossed with foil for the veins, and coated in clear resin, then attached to metal jewelry findings and further embellished with iridescent crystals.
I made one dark version with the Dark Crystal film & copper accents, and one light version with the Lilac film & silver accents, and will find out this week if they are something I can make a batch easily enough to offer to you all!
Yes there will be a flash sale soon with these necklaces and other winged accessories.
