Faery wings?

I am trying to find some faery wings for my daughters,they are going to be the flower faeries in a wedding at the end of April.

I have searched thru so many sites and have found either beautiful quality but way too expensive ($200! *gasp!* ) or cheaply-made over priced wings.
(I am not paying $40 dollars for something that comes in a plastic bag at Halloween! grr)

I have attempted to make them myself only to end up crying in the closet,so self made is out of the question.

Does anyone know some websites that I may have missed?

I would love some help here.

I know there available here in many places but that doesn't help you does it.. Have you checked out ebay? umm..If you have a place called " The tree of life" Shop they usually have em.


I have been wanting to buy black ones but can't get ones with big enough wings.. There all small and not pointy at the tip of the wings which I want. Too lazy to make em myself.. Would go insane even thinking about it. But if you do decide to make them , use a few coathangers bent into what shape you need.. Stockings of your colour choice, some lace glitter/sequins elastic and uh.. I think thats it. Sounds simple but it aint haha..


Here check this out..

lots and lots of fairy stuff..

Have fun . :)

Is that one of the famous Yorkshire fiary photos by those two young girls? I've never seen one of the actual photos before.

yep - the ones that convinced arthur conan doyle and many others that there were real fairies -- of course they are just pictures snipped out of a children's book

but, at the time photography was relatively new and people couldn't imagine upper-class children would 'lie'

(oddly enough - i'm planning to make a quick detour on a trip i'm taking today to Hydesville, NY - where the Fox sisters reported hearing mysterious 'knockings' in the late 19th century - an event that almost single-handedly started the 'new spirtualist' movement eventually leading to the whole photographing fairies thing) - i'll keep my ears peeled for knocking
