Hello Everyone!

Hello! My name is Stephanie (though my friends call me Ari) and I am new to this Etsy thing. So I figured I'd check out these teams and maybe get a chance to attend local events and get to know some fellow sellers!

My goal on Etsy is to sell fairy wings and wing related things - such as jewelry. I have been making and selling doll sized wings for 5 years and I finally feel that my process is good enough to make my human sized wings and random other things. I design all the veining patterns myself, then use a material called Fantasy Film that reacts to heat to create beautiful iridescent colors.

Thank you for having me!

Welcome Ari!

Do you sell at the annual Fairie festival here in the valley? Your fairie wings would be a huge hit!

You know, I've only heard about the Faerie Festival and never gotten a chance to attend. When is it? Maybe I can catch it this year and at least attend if not sell.

Re: Hello Everyone!

I'm not sure when the Faerie Festival is this year but if you google it you will be able to find out the dates and the entry requirements.

If I remember correctly its usually in late May, before the heat really starts to get bad.

Re: Hello Everyone!

I remember last year at Comicon the faeries I talked to at the costuming panel said that they weren't going to have one that year. I can't seem to fin anything newer than 2011 when I google, so maybe I'll just ask them at Comicon again this year. We did, however, find another smaller Ren Faire to attend this year. They have really reasonable booth prices, so me and my boyfriend are looking at splitting one and working the booth together. (He does leather working and pen making and is only just now starting to sell, so he doesn't have an Etsy or anything like that for me to share just yet.)

Here is a direct link to vendor info for anyone else who makes relavant wares for such an event. The event itself is free to the public, but you can pay $15 for dinner and a show at the end of the event as well:
