Official 2017 Tinker Bell Half Marathon Weekend!

[VickiHD]

I need wing help. How do I attach these while wearing a sleeved shirt (instead of tank)? I'm using arm straps in this pic...but do I need to pin them somehow (and how?)
Help!

Cute wings !! Run around and see how they feel. Sorry I can't do better than that.
I use the arm straps on my wings and they have never been a problem. Years ago we had to adjust the strap length but they have been good ever since. Maybe try and look online I'm sure there are some tutorial on wings and placement.

Take two pins and pin the inside of the wings to the shirt... one on each wing. Put nail polish where you stick the pins otherwise the wings will tear as you run. The pins should hold them steady enough to the shirt.

The coffee hasn't kicked in yet - what's wrong with how you're wearing them in your cute pic?

Happy Tuesday!

Coffee stat!!!
It's ok, I didn't explain well enough. In the pic I am wearing the arm straps that come with the wings which actually fit and the placement is good...but I'm worried about the rubbing of armstraps for 13 miles. So I was wondering if there's a way to pin them instead onto the back of my shirt. But upon further thinking about it. I may just wear the straps for the first couple miles and then hand the wings over to my sis if I see her en-route at the chear squad area (where-ever that will be) and run wing-free out in anaheim. I think I may run up and down my street tonight with them on (feeling ridiculous of course the whole time.) I'm a big ball of indecision.

 

[ZellyB]

@roxymama I'm clueless on wing adherence since I've never run in them, but they look good the way you have them as long as they don't bug while you run.

Total outfit looks adorable!!

5 days until the Half, pixies!

Such a cute outfit!! I'd worry about rubbing too - sewing them on seems a little much though. How attached to the shirt are you? Maybe Velcro?

Super, super attached to the shirt...it was quite spendy and I want to wear it again a lot. So I think armbands is the way I'm gonna go since I am not attached to the wings and may need to donate them to the crowd (or maybe it'll be fine.)

Then definitely sacrifice the wings, if needed, to save the shirt! I was shocked that my Mickey ears stayed on fine at princess and didn't bug me at all - so fingers crossed that your wings are the same!

Ah, I see.

I have had rub marks appear on my shirts in the past from stuff like hydration packs...I think the issue was that the straps were too loose, so they were free to move and rub on my shirts. It doesn't seem to happen if the straps are tight enough. Maybe a question for the FB group!

I sewed mine on but I planed on them being apart of the shirt. I sewed the center of the wings and tacked each wing a littler higher. Like the 3 points of a triangle. You could take the stitches out after but no guarantee it wouldn't leave marks or holes. I'd just use arm bands if I were u. I finished my outfit last night If you see this outfit its me! I'm in Coral D. Just printed my waiver.

I'm worried they won't count me for the Coast to Coast since they canceled the Disney World half. I'm pretty sure they said all coast-to-coast challenges would be honored... Can't seem to find that email though.
