Yes! I love it!

Edit: Guys...I need help narrowing down my swarovski crystal purchase. It's at $107 right now. (Granted, about $10 of that is for some very fine chain...)

Swarovski isn't that expensive. I eliminated sizes larger than 19mm and most shapes other than pear, round, and a couple artsy imperfect rhombus type shapes and brought it down to $55.
I just need help deciding on what sizes, if I should mix shapes, and how many to use.
I am only doing 2 wings, and want a crystal hanging in the center of each plus some to dangle along the bottom edge.

Here it is xDD
hmm maybe mix sizes instead of shapes. The quantity depends on the size of the wings.

They will be about like this in size, but without the cute little curve in the wing edge because I can't get my hangers to look cute like that.

I might even do something like the flowers in the middle part (to disguise my imagined shitty tying of the wings together) only in light pink and orange. And without the other decor. Just flowers maybe.

For a better visual of what the wings will actually (hopefully!) look like with the dream catcher aspect....

ahhhh it's going to look super pretty!
You don't need a ton of stones, looks small-ish to me... uhnnn less than 50? xD

Gizzie, do you want to be event staff, too?

Yay! Good luck, Gizzie!

Mdom: what shapes should I use? Also, the swarovski's I'm planning on using have this rainbow effect:
But if something exists that does the same thing for cheaper, I may look into a cheaper route

ooooh, pretty o3o
I think 'drop' shapes would look cool!
Report

Donator Posted 7 years ago ( 2017/09/14 06:05:19 )
Well, they don't have much variety in drop shapes that are small. Mainly just pear and teardrop (which is a more 3d version of pear).

Those wings look bad azz o. O I think I've seen beads that have that rainbow effect too

Unfortunately, I can't lay claim to any of the pictures wings. But hopefully mine will look pretty cool when I get them made. Need to pick up a cheap paint brush and some type of glue to use to keep the yarn I'm using in place around the edge.

There must be rhombus shaped ones that kinda look like drops xD
Report

Donator Posted 7 years ago ( 2017/09/14 06:38:58 )
Kind of? They have some kind of irregular shape "rhombus"-ish ones. Oh, and triangle ones.
Most of the good drop ones are bigger and more expensive.
My cheap options are: round, oval, pear/teardrop, and 1-2 irregular rhombus-ish ones.

I am hoping my application form sounded OK because I actually did the whole Google doc form on my cell and I am really nervous about starting discord I am new to it and new stuff is hard for me to navigate..... I am going to copy paste my application here and see if it sounds OK to y'all


As far as crystal stuff I really am not much help I'd probably just use rainbow sparkling beads like I use in my jewelry and beaded keyrings
