Custom Faery Fairy Wings--FaerySpell Creations
Product Description
This listing is for a pair of custom fairy wings (please note photos shown are examples of my work only :)To create my wings I use a special technique using paper mache, wire, real flowers and leaves, fabric, lace, tulle, netting and ribbons to acheive a truly magical effect :)
They are made for wear, but also make an enchanting display piece. Pair them with my Shakespeare in Love inspired gown and coat (available in a seperate listing) and become a Faery Queene!
These are light and very comfortable, with ribbon ties, so they are adjustable for either adults or children. The part which rests against your back is wrapped with several layers of fabric, which makes them easy to wear for extended periods without discomfort.
Thank you for looking and sharing my world :)
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
I grew up and currently reside in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I am inspired to create my Faeries and mythic creatures though my fascination with the ancient lore and legends of the Faerie People of all lands.
My artistic inspiration comes from Nature, first and foremost.
I also love and greatly respect the work of artists such as Brian and Wendy Froud, Alan Lee, Arthur Rackham and Edmund Dulac.
In addition to these, my inspiration as a doll artist comes from my love of old world dolls and old fashioned marionettes. I love the quality of a doll being doll-like, and yet seeming as if it could come to life at any moment. I believe this influence shows in my work, and is a part of what makes my dolls unique.
My dolls truly seem to me to form themselves--I am only the medium. They emerge from the clay, each with his or her own distinct features and personality--they are always a surprise to me!
ABOUT FAERYSPELL CREATIONS:
I began FaerySpell Creations to share them with others, (and because I couldn't seem to stop making them and they had begun to take over every available shelf and nook and cranny in my house! :)
FaerySpell dolls are meant to capture the faery as archetype, and details such as horns, fur, feathers, leaves flowers and other natural elements are incorporated into them.
They are lovingly handcrafted with no molds used of any kind, (as such there are slight irregularities to each one that add to their uniqueness).
My faeries and mythic dolls are a work of magic, and it is my experience that each chooses their own 'home'
