• Step 1

  First, rip off all the fabric off the old wings, keep the middle bit that holds them together and set it aside.

• Step 2

  Now there should be 4 pieces of wire, take each piece and place them on the tee, for each piece of wire, cut 2 pieces of tee quite smaller than the wire (as it will stretch over it. Once you've cut all 8 pieces move on to the next step.

• Step 3

  Sew each pair of pieces together, leaving a small gap to turn the right way out and to feed the wire into. Turn all pieces the right way out.

• Step 4

  Insert all the wires and sew up the little gaps with a needle and thread.

• Step 5

  Using scraps of the tee, make the middle piece (just sew 2x rectangles together and turn right way out, sew up little gap with needle and thread.

• Step 6

  Hand sew wings in place onto each other, then attach the middle piece by handsewing.

• 

  Step 7

  Reattach the elastic used for the arm holes and decorate the wings using various embellishments.... Then you're done.
