I don't know if this was supposed to be here but...

 

I want to cosplay as Flandre Scarlet from Touhou.

 

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120516093223/villains/images/9/9d/889008.jpg here is her appearance.

 

I already found an outfit for her on Cosplayhouse.com and her little hat and bow so I got that part over with, I also will probably get the shoes and stuff delt with.

 

My problem is her wing things. I don't know how to get things to stay on my back, nor do I know what I am going to do for the crystals....

OMFG TOUHOU.

 

I suggested sewing the wings to the back of the outfit.

But my question is what do I use for the wings? oAo I might use colored Christmas lights for the crystals (those always work....)

The crystals are a pain to find... I was looking on the internet to help you out, but most of them are too small. I would try checking at a local craft store and find some massive beads/pendants and use fishing wire. as for the wings craft stores sell giant pipe cleaners use that and sew fabric around them to form the design you want that way they're sturdy yet light weight. 

OOOOH...Hard one...Still...Touhou! Good idea. If I find info I'll send it back!

Your best bet is probably a craft or a home (idk what else to call it) show. Craft stores might have some colorful plastic pieces you could use, and one of those home-stores where they have rugs and little knick knacks might be a good place to look. Her wings seem to extend off her body notably, so be really careful at a con! You may have to make them slightly smaller. (You also might want to check eBay or Etsy--there might be something on there.)
