I just love tiny things!

This is a terrible pic...the lighting is bad...the color awful....
and it was taken with my cell phone BUT.....
I just had to share it with you!!!!
My granddaughter is so precious and loves animals SO much ~
just look at her kissing my little bunny statue!!!!






I also had to show you how tiny these little fairy shoes are.
I've sold one pair to a dear friend but just to give you an idea...here's a photo of the other pair:





I also had to show you how incredibly tiny the magnolia petal fairy shoe ended up being!!!!
It's now on its way to its wonderful owner but just to give you an idea of
how these things shrink.....just look:





Making things from organic materials is an incredible thing...I didn't realize the shrinkage factor but thank goodness I had it a few days as it dried and realized that I'd stuffed way too full with moss!!!
I took out about half of what I'd stuffed in and it worked out wonderfully.
What do they say, "live and learn"....well, I say "create and learn!"


Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday dear friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

The shoe is even more wonderful at the small size and just think if you waited until the petal was totally dry you wouldn't have been able to work with it being so brittle. Ah, the wonder and beauty of nature!!
Love the pic of little Clara. What a treasure!

Hi Dawn

If those little shoes are not the cutest thing I have ever seen. What a wonderful use of a natural flower.
