I've been featured!

Sweet Hyla, of My Fairy Babies has featured me on her blog! I am so excited to be included. Hyla is from New York and has a nice shop in Etsy. She is a SAHM who makes her own variety of fairy items. Be sure to check out her shop to see what she has been up to lately. Thanks, Hyla!!

feather your nest

I woke up this morning with this wonderful inspiration. I love to wake up that way. I see it as a gift from God - like a sweet little dream He gave me. I had already made a similar shadowbox, but not quite like this one. This sweet little fairy bird likes to sew and has feathered her nest with all kinds of her favorite things - 3 miniature spools of thread, a threaded needle, a miniature treadle sewing machine, a t-pin, and a metal snap that she has used to adorn her crown.

I made Colorpoetry's Treasury List!

I am always so excited when I am featured in someone's treasury. With so many wonderful items to choose from on Etsy, it is such an honor to be selected. This time, I was chosen to be part of ColorPoetry's *Subtle Beauty* treasury list. She featured a collage shelf that I made. (Yes, I am a woman to can use power tools)

Valentine Collage

I have been having so much fun learning Adobe Photoshop. Well, not really, but I'm having fun with the results. Learning anything new on the computer makes me want to pull my hair out.

I'm late, I'm late . . .

. . . for a very important date. No time to say "hello", "goodbye". I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!

That is certainly how I feel as Christmas gets closer and closer and I'm not ready!!

Captured Winter Fairy - Emily

This morning, when I went out to get the newspaper, I found this adorable little fairy making snow angels in the middle of our front yard.

Her name is Emily and she loves coconut macaroons and tea with lots of sugar. I think that is why she is so sweet!

Captured Winter Fairy - Edward

Yesterday evening, I saw tiny footprints all around my birdbath in the snow. I followed them and found this sweet little fairy boy talking to the rabbit who frequents the garden. I asked him what his name was. The dear fellow's name is Edward. He comes from a long line of fairies who live in these parts. He is one of four brothers and three sisters. He and his twin brother, Earl are the youngest in the family. If you listen carefully, you will hear him sing. He can make up songs at the drop of a hat. He is a pleasure to have around.
