    I made my own flower fairy wings! Not a tutorial but feel freer to draw inspiration! I've been wanting to make more wings since I got some at the Celtic Renaissance Faire and I finally did it!

    Tip for doubling up the floral wire next time: clamp one end of the wires in a vice grip or, like people who don't have a fully kitted out workshop, under something heavy like a sofa leg or stand mixer. Place the other ends in you drill like you would a drill bit and run the drill slowly. Nice, tight, uniform coiled wire.
    The things you learn watching random videos...
    Love your work!

      I didn’t think of that! I’m very much a, so what I can with that I have and what I know which is why this time I made sure people knew this wasn’t exactly a tutorial since I’m trying it out for the first time lol.

      Oh, me, too! Totally! My home renovations and project building are NEVER documented for that reason. Shhhh ;-) A week ago I also would have done what you did with the tape. When I saw the guy stick the wires in the drill and twist them my jaw dropped. So simple! So clever! Why did I never think of that?!
      Again, great job! You're an inspiration. 💛💛💛

    You used to be able to buy a product called glazing tint which, if my geriatric brain recalls correctly, was for stencil painting on walls. But I think the acrylic turned out lovely.
    I did a lot of cringing while watching you paint on that rug. Yikes! Reminds me of the time my husband used a miter box saw to cut molding on top of our coffee table!
    I had a thought for photography during the reveal portion - use a mirror so the video catches your face when your back is turned showing off the gorgeous wings.❤
    Thanks for the video. I will give this a try one day soon, I'm sure!😊

    • @DressMeUpScotty
      @DressMeUpScotty  Před rokem

      Haha that rug has been through a lot. Surprisingly it hides a lot of stains. I’ve spilled paint on it before and with all the colors you can’t tell 😂 it helps having colorful rugs. I have them all over the house. Eventually I’ll invest in some of those machine washable rugs but for now my mini shampooer does a good job.

    Hey! I was wondering how you managed to secure the hose onto the wire? It’s the only part that isn’t really touched on in the video. I couldn’t get my hands on wire hangers and I also have a lot of floral wire that I made pretty thick by doubling and tripling up, but the hose weigh it down and it wont hold its shape!
