      That’s cool! I’ve seen a favourite doll artist make bee/fairy wings with wire and resin like that https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf__Z2l5Tks

      That looks so cool. They would look great in a hanging mobile

      and does anyone else remember that craft where you could make shapes in wire loops and dip in some kind of liquid plastic that would dry?

      I found a video of it 😊 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQXKtLuDcIQ

      Another similar craft I remember is using panty hose fabric in wire loops, you could get use different colours and texture hose of course

        I keep meaning to make garden defender moths out of deceased pantyhose. Same basic idea, loop of wire & cover it. 🦋
