Mini tutorial 1. Draw your wing shape and cut it out of some cardboard. I used a fruit snacks box. Don't forget to cut out a piece to connect them.
2. Cover the wings with duct tape, and attack the connector piece. Make sure it'll look good on your doll of course.
3. This is the trickier part. Cut a small piece of duct tape, then cut it in half. You're left with a little square of duct tape. Fold that in half but leave space at the top. Cut away one of the sides at the top so you're left with a little duct tape rectangle with a sticky flap at the top. That's what you'll use to put it on the wing. Then cut the bottom edge so it looks like a V. Stick that to your wing.
4. Repeat a zillion times until you're done. In the meantime say goodbye to your fingerprints, they are now part of your wings.
5. Get some clear elastic and using duct tape, secure it to the wings. make sure it'll fit your doll of course, but if it doesn't you can always do it over. You can make the straps out of duct tape but this way you won't see the elastic as well. I got my clear elastic at Walmart.
