Fantasy film

[Seahorse]

Anybody heard or used stuff called fantasy film?
It comes in liquid form and sheets, looks like that lovely clear/crunchy(like acetate) packaging you can get in gift boxes, in a colour or AB.
Apparently you can make fairy wings from it!!

Anybody used it?

OK after doing this :mf: and this :D at the posts above................


I have used fantasy film before. You basically make a shape from thin wire and dip it into coloured (very smelly) liquid. It then dries to a thin acetate. Very easy to use with good results.

A few years ago it was really popular for making flowers (petal by petal), but I once made a pair of earrings out of it by dipping a 2-sided spiral in, if that makes sense.

Never heard of sheets of it but it used to come in clear and opaque colours.

Hi there, sorry to jump in late.
I use fantasy film all the time for fairy wings (and hopefull will have a try on mermaids tails too)
The liquid form is called dip it, the sheets are called fantasy film - I get it from my local craft shop, don't pay over the odds for it on ebay, they sell little squares for a pound or two a time, I pay around £4 for about a metre.
It's great to experiment with, if you hold a candle under it you get the lovely holey effect, you can also seal the edges this way too, I have just discovered today, that embossing powder works a treat too.
I haven't used dip it, but have seen flowers made out of it (doesn't look strong enough to cover a vast area like a wing, but I maybe wrong)
What are going hoping to make with it?

i use the liquid to make flowers, and they look really nice when they have dried. Its really easy to use and im sure it would be great for fairy wings as the liquid is quite strong when dry.

Does the film dry solid or is it bendy?

If you want something bendy, try Translucent Liquid Sculpey or liquid fimo, it can be coloured with acrylic paint too.
It's liquid, but is like rubber when it is baked
