How intricate do you want this? Guess you could go with cardboard and tissue paper for wings. Foam for feet, tights for skinny legs. Or do you want a paper mache head that fits over the wearers head?
Great ideas! we want to keep it simple. Nothing too extravagant. I was thinking along the lines of a cape and stitching together on the sides to make the wings. She will be tossing gummy worms to the children along the parade route! :) :)
