My daughter has several sets of wings - for Halloween and dress up-and they ALL fall backwards and dont lay flat on her back. I've tried tightening up the arm straps and it doesn't help. Any suggestions? ...Please....

What can I do next?

affix some hook and loop stick on tape to shirt and to back of wings, that should do it. If for costume for halloween, you can always quick baste the wings to the shirt/dress she will be wearing.

I hate when that happens. :)

If they are the kind that have arm straps that go kind of back pack style you can tack the wings to the straps by the shoulders. Make sure it is loose enough that they flap mind you. Nothing worse than a fairy that cannot flap their wings.

I used to pin them to her shirt. I also reinforced the area where they connected in the back so it was more stiff

.. You could also attach a cute belt or elastic head band (depending on how old and what size your child is) to the wings and attach them not only through the arms but also around the waist.

I know a lot about wings, our daughter loved her angel, butterfly, horsefly, dragon and fairy wings.. for many years.

I would add a second set of ribbon to tie around her chest.

Safety pin them open from the inside of her shirt. Good luck!

Try a super hero cape instead. Much better role model and they stay on :)
