So the lovely @kittensquid sent me a Songbird Serenade she found of all place a thrift store. There just so new you would not think to find one there, None the less she did and she sent it to me, I love Songbird I have no Idea why but the I can see a Rainbow Song seem to make my day better. Course I love Sia too so its all good.
Now this Songbird had no wings but everything else was in great shape.

I had to take her jacket off and then I mad a pattern of her wings using my Fluttershy, I cut several layers and glued them together. I then primed them and painted them and then went back over them with a marker. I had to use clay to cover the holes in her side. I think painted the wings and sealed them again,
I super glued the wing to the side.
Only down side is that she cant wear her top/jacket anymore but she can still sing and the wing came out ok for my 1st try.

Thanks I try to fix broken toys if I can. It's not fair to the toy if it brings you great joy. To be cast aside cause of one issue.
 
Those look really good for your first try. I'd say you nailed it!
 
I can't believe she got that at a thrift store
It is kinda sad that her wings are missing.
But you made her your own and that is what
makes Her even more special to you

I love her so much I think I have
