I need some of those magic happy wings

Once upon a time there were two little girls who kept sneaking into the hallway closet and getting out their Halloween fairy wings, even though it wasn’t even October yet and their mama kept trying to hide them. They wore those wings every single day for two months. And every time they put on the wings, they smiled, and giggled, and belly laughed.DSC_9163LR2 DSC_9164LR2-3DSC_9190LR2-3 DSC_9207LR2-3 DSC_9214LR2 DSC_9225LR2-3 DSC_9241LR2-3

I need some mama-sized versions of those magic happy wings!

Photo stuff:

Nikon D300, lens 35mm f/1.8, manual exposure, 1/320 at f4.5, ISO 400, photos tweaked in Lightroom with various setting adjustments, including using NV Pop preset.

I posted the big versions of these pics over at the We Picture {this} mamarazzi site, so click over there if you’d like to see them in giganta size or if you’d like to see the other photographers’ great We Picture {laughter} entries – they are all so fun!

  7. Hi Friea!!
    The pink wings are from Diddams party store (they're the adult version size) and they're only available in the stores. And the blue and green wings are the kid's size ones from Spirit Halloween stores, and they're available right now online or in the stores. The wings were about $10 each.

  12. so cute!
    when my baby sister was 4, she was an angel at her preschool's christmas pageant. my mom made her this amazing pair of white, sparkly, feathery, glittery, angelic wings. that child wore those wings every.single.day well into spring (you can imagine the looks, smiles and comments we got parading this angelic being around town)! she's now 30 and we still talk about those wings :-)

  13. Even more cuteness and joy than the two you posted over at {we picture this}. And if you think about it - you kind do have two fairy wings. They even have names. Lets see....Ro and Ree.

    I was going to tell you to tell your mom to make some but then I saw your comment that they have adult size!

  16. Happy, giggly and carefree! Just as children should be.

    When you buy a pair for yourself, pick up 2 k? We adults need more giggl, carefree time. Your girlies have the right idea.

  17. They are so happy! Darling wings. I would be wearing them everyday too.

    By the way, I made the cookies (with applesause instead of oil) and they were YUM!

    Have you sold your house?

    When do you move into your new house?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Yes, we are in contract on the current house!! So please think good thoughts for a smooth close. Moving to the new house should be somewhere in the middle October. Yikes!
