If you should catch a fairy ~

I've been wanting to create this little jar fairy for awhile and finally did! I wrote a little poem to go along with her . . . a poem? who knew??





She has ultrafine clear glitter on her paper wings backed with vintage lace. I made her a little banner she's holding to remind you of what she's capable of! And last but not least, a tiny little fairy wand made from a straight pin, tiny beads and one little strip of shredded paper wrapped tightly down.


Doesn't she look like she could grant a few wishes?




Wishing you a wonderful Friday!

xxoo, Dawn

Precious, precious, precious! Have you seen the July issue of Romantic Homes? They have a 12 page spread of a fairy deliciousness! I thought of you and of Karla (Karla's Cottage, who has a recent post on her fairy making and some really cute fairy names and what they mean to her, worth checking out.) when I read it. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Attic Rat said...

She is a darling for sure! She looks like some that I've caught in my yard. I even caught one that steals chocolate - you have to be careful when you have those around. Guard your chocolate well!
