Should I add glitter to the wings of my Lily Fairy?

I just finished posting my Easter Lily Fairy and now I'm wondering if I shouldn't have added glitter or not.

Fairies and glitter do seem to go well together. -) She's delightful as she is, but I think a touch of clear/iridescent superfine glitter would be lovely, too.

Maybe just on the edges of the petals so not to take away the beauty of your craft!

Personally, I'm not a fan of glitter. I think she's beautiful just as she is!

Oh my goodness - all good suggestions. Maybe Myrtles suggestion of a little bit on the edges would be a nice middle ground.

That would be "gilding the lily" an old phrase meaning trying to improve on perfection!

I would glitter the wings area only. Great job though.

There really are are beautiful glitters available that would bring this lovely fairy to life ... I'm not usually a big fan of glitter myself but a very fine, maybe even iridescent glitter at the edges of the wings might just make them flutter. I have several glitters in my supplies that have tiny stars ...it's come a long way!
