Well I have never attempted a video with talking before.....so please excuse any awkwardness! It's oddly nerve wracking recording your own voice.... ^_^

I'd love to try making more, of different designs, using the same idea
Thank you so much for watching! ♥
Enjoy

I am totally doing this for my March Eridan and Undyne cosplay. They are way cheaper then those latex ones you can buy, and prettier too.
The lone undetale cosplayer in a stampede of homestuck cosplayers... coming this october, 2017.
these look incredible!!! they'd work really well for dragon ears, too imo
It's handy, because I bought wire hot homestuck horns. Now I won't need to spen money on merfolk ears. Nice tutorial.

I just landed here and you put so many thoughts together for me - I love wire, make wire faces, was thinking about what else. Minutes after seeing thisI grabbed a pen pad and ruler (to measure my ears), sketched, cut, grabbed my 16 ga gold colored copper, shaped, cut, twisted & love the the frame! Wow! THANK You for your clear and insightful instructions. I can't wait to finish these!
have you ever considered doing liquid latex over the lace to make them more flesh like? other then that awesome tutorial thank you so much might use this for my wedding.
this is gorgeous! I hope it's not tacky to offer an option. I wanted wire butterflies, so I did the same with the wire, but used clear blue which I layered with glitter etc. Thank you for this!
Oh man! I have too many essays and deadlines but now I have to make a pair of these.
Golbon Mol
😅😅😅 feeling exactly the same
Many stuff to do
But I HAVE TO make a pair
I have a quilting hoop, I think putting the fabric in that and then stitching around it would work well and hot glue when it is still in the hoop, glitter hot glue would look cool too.
Aaaah! Thank you so much,you did an amazing job. I'll hopefully be wearing my version for Bloodswap!Karkat! Again,thank you!
Exactly what I was searching for. Thank you so much… btw you are really talented, they’re looking great!❤❤❤
Nice work! Wish we could all be fairies and mermaids every day🤗🤗
this is such an amazing, thoroughly detailed diy! phenomenal, seriously.
those are so simple yet awesome!
How comfortable are these to wear? Do you recommend them for long wear, like a Halloween party?
I didn't even have my sound on, but I still knew how to make it!!!😀great job!! It should be on the front page if TH-cam!!!
Thank you so much
I'm so happy you made this DIY I was looking all over the internet for these! But now I know how to make my own!
Excellent! So happy I could help ^_^
This is perfect for my feferi cosplay
Great tutorial! Your explanations were precise and clear. I would love to see some more of your prop work in video form because you have quite the talent there too!
Thank you sooo much for this! ^_^♡ I love it. Amazing work and beautiful makeup/pix as well. My friend and I have plans, to have a mermaid photoshoot in the summer. I was curious how to go about making ears and I am so glad your vid popped up 1st. Looking forward to trying your super great method!
I used this for my halloween costume at work! So many people stopped me to look at them thank you so much!!! :D
+Dehstayne H You're very welcome!! I'm so happy it was useful for you! :D
+Dehstayne H How did you get the pattern to copy? I'm new to this so i have no idea :/ Really would appreciate some help with getting the pattern to make my wire stencil. Thank you
+Amy Blundell I free handed a shape on cardstock and molded the wires around that shape. I do wire work often so I didnt need much to get going. If I were you I wouldn't cut out the pattern after sketching it out. That way you have the whole sheet of paper to work with. Tap the paper down to a solid flat surface and mold the wires flat down like she does so you don't have to manage doing it in the air. You'll have more control on the shape. But you will have to sketch out a pattern you like.
Really cool. Thanks for the clear & encouraging instructions. I like the technique & since I just bought my first glue gun, it's nice to see some ways to use it:)
Awesome - thank you for sharing - These would also be great for mermaid or fairy dolls. I wonder if you could lightly use a flame or heat gun for the fuzzy edges after cutting off the fabric - it would seal to the wire.
my school is WAAAY competitive about Halloween costumes so this is great! thanks so much!!! 😀
These are amazing. I wish you sold them online. I will never be able to make a pair that nice..
Made my ears but they are nowhere near as pretty as yours.
That's such a beautiful idea! you could even modify it and apply some latex to cover up the net structure :)
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!so good I want to make these so bad
I'm in love. Can not what to some my self, but if you plain on selling these try craft fairs or renaissance fairs. Stay brave
Your diys are AWESOME!!!
Breathtaking work. Thank you for sharing.
these would make a feferi/meenah and eridan/cronus cosplay so frickin ba d a ss omg i wanna cosplay one of em now >.
I knew there'd be a homestuck in the comments. ..
shit that me
That's what I thought of when I clicked the video !
:D
I think I'm going to try and adapt this for a lion fish costume! I'm uber excited now, I'll let you know how it goes!
That sounds so cool! Keep me posted! :D
l
I'ma use this for my Feferi cosplay
Sam the jelly bean same
These are gorgeous - cannot wait to try them out myself!
this is so cute I have been trying to figure out a nice design forever and this is exactly what I wanted thank you so much
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! You have no idea how much I love this diy!! I may make a ton of them to match every outfit I own LOL!
It would be pretty epic to have one for every outfit :D
It's so great to hear your voice! I wish I sounded this confident when I did my first voiceover :D
Amazing video, thanks for the inspiration! ♥
Ah thank you so much! It's amazing to hear I sounded confident haha
I'm happy I was able to pull it off honestly ^_^
@@NsomniaksDream If only she would know what the future held ;) might use these one day though. great vid
Brilliant - given me some ideas for Halloween this year x
I saw you making one of those in class. I didn't know you made a tutorial. They turned out great!
that is the coolest addition ss. Your great .
thanks for sharing your design. love them .
Fantastic video! You should do more of these with voice overs. You have a beautiful voice!
Aw thank you - I guess it's not out of the question ... now that I've taken the first leap. Haha
I'm so happy you enjoyed this ^-^
Wow, that´s a really artist masterpiece.
thank you for this it's so cool. can't wait to try it!
Fabulous artwork
Wow! Those are gorgeous!
So talented this is awesome. I gotta try it out one day soon for one of my looks!
I need to remake my undyne fins like that and do my feferi and condy fins like this
Totally love this!! I will show you my creation when I finish mine ^_^
You are fantastic! I loved this! Well, I'll be honest, I love all of your videos. You are amazingly creative, and this video inspired me to get more fantasy-DIY creative. 👍👏
You are too sweet :D I'm happy you're inspired to do fantasy DIY - there can never be enough! Haha
I sooooo want a pair of those, in different Shades of Blue.
Great video, I actually feel I could make these following your excellent tutorial xxxx
Those are amazing!
That is awesome! I thought you sounded very good - fun to listen to.
Thanks so much for the video! I found it so helpful in making fins for my fish costume for Halloween this year. :)
I got into this tutorial pretty randomly but I'm thankful I did! This is awesome! I somehow want to attend a costume party or event so I could do this DIY!
ikr idk how I got here but need Halloween to be in January so I can make these
Those are beautiful. Thank you for the tutorial.
absolutely fantastic, will have to try it out. Thnak you for sharing.
Stunning luv 🧜♀️
The only thing I’d add is to slightly hammer the finished piece after shaping to add strength. Test fit some wire around just your ear to get a feel for how it feels, or as a base to attach to the winged part, even making a smaller winged set to place over or wear instead of the larger set. Sheer interfacing would also work as a cheaper sub for lace with no fray. Black would be pretty too, with silver & glitter. Tea or coffee dye the interfacing for a flesh color. Glitter hairspray would add some sparkle and stiffness.
this is absolutely amazing. thank you for sharing this idea
You did a great job
Great tutorial! I love it! Can't wait to try this!
You didn't need to me worried; you did great! I haven't been subscribed long, but I think that you should do more voiceovers. Good job :D
Thank you so much. I've never really considered doing voice overs for my videos... but I guess I should start :3 lol
Thanks! i did this for my friends birthday party! your the best!
These are fantastic! You are so creative
this is soooooooooo pretty!
you are very talented !
man, you make this look so easy xD It definitely is not lol but yours look really nice!
These are amazing! I have to try this out next Halloween!
Very beautiful you have inspired me to try to create some dragon ears this way
They're soooo cooooooool! It's nowhere near Halloween, so.... what other excuse can I come up with to create a mermaid costume? Haha
Nsomniaks dream I like your idea the mermaid wire is so pretty
Wow! It caught me by surprise when you started talking :3 you should do videos like these more often. They're definitely more helpful!
Thank you very much
I'm happy to hear it was helpful :D
This is amazing! I think I will try a version of this out cuz I used to work with wires before! It's somuch fun :D Thank you for this!
eat idea! thank you for sharing this im definitely going to try this.
wow I'm so glad you made this video! beautiful!
Thank you Izzy! ^_^ I'm so happy you like it
clever I never would have thought of that.... I like it😄
possible printable pattern for the shape?
This would be useful.
Yeah a template would be so helpful!!! 😁
Great video...glad to hear your voice.
Thanks Connie :)
GORGEOUS!!!
thank you fo uploading this, you inspired me to make dragon ears n.n
TheUnloveableOne Ah! That will be so cool!!
I hope they turn out amazing :D
oh, i already made them! Sorry if that was confusing XD They turned out really pretty. They arent exactly identical but you'll only see one at a time anyways since they'll be on the opposite side of your head.. they're red with black and gold n.n
woooww!!!!
can you do other types?? like butterflys or simple for everyday using
this looks so awesome, congratz on your work!! :3
I want to try making these for a Princess Ruto Burlesque costume. Do you think they would stay on with some light dancing?
I wish I could just permanently look like this
very pretty!
I CAN NOT MAKE THE SHAPE!!but it's awesome I am planing to get dressed a mermaid you are so usefull!!!
put two together they would make a really awesome swallowtail butterfly mask
I used this method and mine came out perfect thank you!
how well do they stay on (top heavy/not stick well)? in theory, could u wrap them around ur whole ear and hook them around somehow?
You are so talented :)
This is sooooo amazing!!
just a thought, had you considered using high test spray adhesive to attach the fabric to the wire rather an sewing it on? I wonder how well it would have worked. Nice tutorial either way and has inspired me onto other designs.
That is definately a method worth trying out :) I hadn't considered that
NsomniaksDream I have used the adhesive for headdresses and it seems to work just fine ... you may baste a little for added security but it should be sufficient as well as time efficient. Lovely ears btw. 😊
My reaction: THOSE ARE FUCKIGN COOL!
Gorgeous
Awesome design!!! Is like a dream come true :)
+ĐRΔMΔ KΔRMΔ Thank you so much
+NsomniaksDream Hi, um...I was wondering if you made a website where you sell these, I really want one but dont have the material or skill for the job.
You should try Neytiri from the movie avatar! I love your channel and videos!
Terrific!
these are so amazing
How did you make the first one fit? And how did you get the shape of your ear so perfect?
Honestly I just took a rough measurement of my ear length and width, so when I drew it on paper I knew it'd be "around" that size
The wire is so malleable that even if you're off by quite a bit you can just pinch and bend the wire around your ear to help it stay on ^.^
