We make white angel wings from improvised means. Preparation stage
This model is made of the most affordable materials listed:
- A3 format cardboard (2 sheets);

- pen.
In addition, PVA glue, a thermogun, scissors, a pencil, sewing accessories, a stapler are needed for work.
Instructions for the manufacture of angel wings for a fancy dress from napkins and feathers
On paper, draw a sketch of the wing of the size you need. Cut the template, transfer it to the cardboard. Perform two such parts symmetrical to each other. Cover them on both sides with white paper. Next, try on the product to the back and outline the places where the elastic bands will be attached. Keep in mind that the distance between them should be equal to the width of the back. Sew them to the cardboard blanks or pin them with a stapler. Seal fasteners with white paper patches. Now proceed to the design of the product. Glue the wings of an angel with a thermogun along the edges with white long feathers. Decorate the remaining space with napkins. How to do it? Apply PVA glue to the entire surface of the wing. Crumple a napkin and place it on a cardboard part. Thus, design the entire product. Crumpled napkins are very similar visually to fluff. Angel wings , made in this way, look very believable. Leave the craft to dry at room temperature. Press it down at the edges (where the feathers are attached) with hard objects. Performing this action, make sure not to take napkins. After the attribute of the carnival costume dries, you can add it with decorative elements: rhinestones, beads, painting with acrylic paints.
Fantasy has no limit! Paper utensils - the basis for the manufacture of attributes for a masquerade
You can make original and beautiful angel wings with your own hands (a photo of this is confirmed) from such material as disposable cardboard plates. What do we need for work? We study the list of materials and tools:
- paper plates (small);
- marker;
- scissors;
- thermal gun;
- satin ribbon 2.5-4 cm wide.
Preparation method
On eight plates, mark the crescent lines on both sides with markers. Cut them along these contours. As a result, you get sixteen "crescents" and eight ovals with sharp corners. Set aside the last details; they will not be needed in the work. When performing this procedure, remember that all “crescents” must be the same size and width, so follow them one pattern at a time. These wedges will continue to serve as feathers on the product. Continue to make angel wings with your own hands this way: put in front of you a whole cardboard plate upside down, lay on it pieces of wedges, sliced in wedges, of eight pieces on each side in the form of a fan. Glue them with a heat gun. Attach one more of the same whole disposable plate on top. Next, follow the straps from the tape. Glue its edges to the wrong side of the product. The final version of this craft you can see in the photo. Each of you can literally do such an original angel wings with your own hands in an hour.
Flap white cloth
An angel’s costume, namely its main part - wings, can be made very quickly from thin textile. For their manufacture you will need such materials: white fabric (cotton, linen, silk), thread and needle, stapler, cardboard, scissors.
Want to know how to make such an attribute of a fancy dress? Then study the description.
Perform the template and the cardboard base as described in the first version of the product. Next, tighten the blanks with a white cloth, secure it with a stapler. Tear another piece of textile into long strips with a width of 3-5 centimeters. Gather them with stitches on the thread along one edge and pull it slightly, forming a frill. Pin the resulting lush piece onto the wing horizontally with a stapler. Thus, shape the entire front side of the product. Angel wings, made in this way with their own hands, turn out to be voluminous and very beautiful. Torn edges of the fabric are associated with feather and down and look very natural on such an accessory.
