Once upon a time, fairies might have only existed in your childhood imagination. However, self-taught costume artist Rosanna Long brings the tiny mystical beings to life with her handmade accessories. From human-sized wings to glittering fairy crowns, these enchanting pieces allow you to become a real-life woodland pixie.
Long crafts her fairytale accessories from transparent plastic, ribbon, metal, gems, glass beads, flowers, leaves, and, of course, a sprinkling of fairy dust. Among wearable wings and headdresses, the talented artisan’s “magical emporium” also includes fairy-inspired earrings, necklaces, rings, and hair clips. Although they come in a variety of styles and colors, their lifelike quality remains consistent. Each piece looks like it’s made from real dragonfly or butterfly wings, displaying their beautifully delicate, glass-like forms and iridescent colors.
You can purchase accessories from Long’s magical collection on Etsy, where you can even contact her for custom orders.
