Missy sent me this AMAZING fairy! She is truly exquisite.


she came with these lovely dried orange flower blossoms which made the box smell lovely...


and a mushroom bookmark, pixie dust with a toadstool stopper, fairy glitter, owl ribbon, and lovely ornate Easter egg...

Fairy Goodness from Jenny!


OH MY!! Look at all this Fairy Goodness that my Swap Partner, Jenny sent me!!
She sent me some wonderful goodies that I can use in the making of my Fairy Doors, a set of lovely vintage napkins, a gorgeous leaf magnet made from a vintage brooch and so many other great goodies!
But the sweet little Fairy (who was hiding in the little blue pouch) was the BEST surprise of all! 


She's not quite two inches tall and is made from buttons and small beads. Isn't she just adorable??? She's just so teeny-tiny!
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! Jenny!

February's Fairy & Friend

Look at all these wonderful goodies that Robin sent my way!!! Robin, you are SO generous with your creative giving! I was so amazed to find so many wonderful items in the box when it arrived yesterday.
There was my little fairy nestled in with her big green dragon friend, a mini eye-spy quilt for the boys (AWESOME!!), colored pencils, sharpeners, and a mini sticky note pad, a pair of Valentine knee highs (yay!), a fat quarter with hearts, two bead necklaces with medallions, and a little baggy with a strawberry pin and four felt cupcakes (I think).
Here's my sweet little fairy with her dashing green dragon pal. My toddler snatched him up pretty quick once I opened the box. You're right Robin, dragons and fairies DO go together...my mom lives by the same rule in her household. :) Thank you SO MUCH Robin, everything was fabulous!!

Here's what I sent to Robin. I took this pic before I found the chocolate covered Red Vines and Leavenworth postcards.
This month's challenge was to use glitter....here's how I used some gold glitter on Miss Yellow Fairy...
And for our fairy house, we haven't gotten around to building a NEW one, but here are a few existing ones in our backyard that we winterized by locating them at a higher elevation so they wouldn't get buried with snow through the winter (although, it hardly snowed and mostly rained this winter). The first two are actually Gnome Homes with little red and white mushrooms on some moss and the third being a fairy's honeymoon suite. This past month has been super rainy and extra muddy all over so I didn't want to take the kiddies out to build a new fairy house in it.
