I have winged the ponies! My alternative flutter replacement wings

[Ginger]

Hello! I first made wings like these for my (AWESOME) swap partner this past spring. It inspired me to use them on other stuff for etsy over the summer, but I finally got around to making some for my own ponies. I wanted to share!

They are made out of fantasy film and wire. These ones don't even have tabs anymore-  the wire slides right down and holds into the second wave flutters, and I just bent it to fit the first wave flutters (the old foam tabs I used were a pain to get right!). It won't hold up to any play time.. but my girls are just for displaying anyway.

Since I have this (and sadly possibly the next) semester off school, I was thinking about opening commissions if there is any interest? I know repro flutter wings are desired, but I don't know much about how the alternative wings are wanted.

I gotta make some extras for the rest of the flutters I want to collect. Looking at those empty mechanisms made me so sad!

Those wings are gorgeous! Good luck with getting commissions! I totally would if I had the money!

Oh, those are so pretty. I especially like the ones on the purple pony. Nice work!

[happycootie]

Those wings are so much prettier than the original ones! You've done a fantastic job

[LadySatine]

Ginger those are lovely!

[Whippycorn]

They are absolutely lovely! I love how they each have unique wings.

[kaoskat]

Those are gorgeous! They look great on them!

[TwilightOwl]

These are so pretty! Better than the original in my eyes. What were you thinking of charging per set?

[Lady Starflower]

Those wings are sooo beautiful! I'm in love!

[Saja]

Theyre gorgeous, I love how they grab the light!

[Ginger]

Thank you for all the sweet comments!!
 

TwilightOwl, I was thinking maybe $6.50 a set? That seems to be a rough average. Does anybody have any thoughts? 

[Teddy]

Wow, those are beautiful!!

I think $6.50 a set is perfectly reasonable for these. It just comes down to how much they cost you to make, to be sure you are making some kind of a profit. ^-^

Those are beautiful!  I feel like I am rather picky about replacement wings.  I love how simple and perfectly they work with the size of your flutters   Well done!

Gorgeous!  Great job!  I am sure you will get commissions.
