Eighty Eight - Glide Like Tinkerbell On Your Lovely Halloween Costume Wings

By Matthew Alexander


The perfect accessories can greatly enhance any look. One of the most popular dress-up accessories is Halloween costume wings. Whether you plan to sport a heavenly angel costume, or a darkly evil devil costume, the wings you choose can take your look to another level. They can also create a holiday hazard, if worn discourteously. There are a few ways you can create the perfect set of keywords and a few things to remember when wearing them.

Usually Halloween costume wings are pretty easy to put on and pull off. Get them securely on and your look instantly becomes more than it originally was. Think of a fairy costume without wings, just doesn't seem right huh?

Take precaution to make sure your Halloween costume wings are secured properly to your costume. The last thing you want are wings that are sliding all around your body as you try to enjoy yourself this Halloween. Also be aware that because they are normally attached using elastic, the more often you pull them on and off, the more likely they are to get stretched out. My advice: put them on and leave them on if you can!

Conversely, wearing Halloween costume wings that fit too snug could potentially cause them to snap. We've all gotten pinched by some quick snapping elastic. So just watch out and try to make sure that a snapped wings doesn't end up hurting someone around you. The other thing is that wings have a tendency to slide off; but this might be better than ones that end up floating in a sink full of water.

Other than adjusting the size, you can easily do some modifications to your wings. Get a glue gun and add pom-poms or even sparkling beads. Those that are truly creative may want to cut out their own stencil to put a special design on their wings. And don't forget about fabric paint, this is also an inexpensive way to personalize your wings.

It would not hurt to be prepared to ditch the wings after you start your Halloween partying. Have a fall back plan for broken wings, either ask the host or hostess for a place to stow them or be prepared to return them to your vehicle. You do not want to be the rude guest who was hiding their broken costume around the house.

Always remember to be courteous in tight places. Your wings will inevitably stick out farther than you are used to, since you do not naturally have wings. Remember this as you pass by buffet tables and other guests. If you do accidentally hit a fellow Halloween party goer, make sure you excuse yourself or risk looking selfish in your fairy costume.

Halloween costume wings are always cool to see on the right costume. You can wear them plain or make them your own by adding extra bells and whistles. You'll notice how much people are looking at your unique wings when you take the extra time to add some pizzazz. Just keep in mind that Halloween costume wings can be hazardous to those around you so keep an eye out. The most critical thing is to make sure you have a good time in those wings as a devil, a fairy, or an angel this year! Edited by Svetchey Sanorols
