Faerie je riječ iz kasnog XVI vijeka koja znači vila.
Simboli koji su korišćeni:
Ogledalo - portal ili kapija u druga carstva
Pletenice - prirodna ljepota
Šiljate (vilinske) uši - bliža povezanost sa prirodom; simbol lepote i posebnosti; besmrtnost
Leptir - transformacija; sloboda; ponovno rođenje
Krug - jedinstvo i večnost
Ruže - očaranost; nježnost; simbol božanstva ženskog
Boje koje su karakteristične za vile:
Zelena - često se povezuje sa vilama jer simbolizuje prirodu, magična carstva u kojima se kaže da vile borave
Plava - povezana je sa zagonetnim i onostranim aspektima vila
Srebro - često povezano sa mističnim i natprirodnim; simbolizuje čari i magiju koja se pripisuje vilama
Zlato - simbol bogatstva i magije
Pastelne boje(roze, lavande i svetlo plave) - često se koriste za prikaz ćudljive i nežne prirode vila
I gave my faerie a new hair doo yesterday. This is the style that I had originally envisioned for her. Cones on her head and a braid down the back. However, I didn't have enough of the hair to wrap cones. Though her style before was pretty, it has been bugging me that it wasn't what I envisioned, soooo, I ordered more hair and ta da!
I love when light from the sun produces flares and its own natural bokeh. The streams of light often produce magical effects. This one triggered my imagination, as the "orb" on the lower right resembled a face peeking out from the leaves when I first looked at it. If you're Irish, do faeries follow you wherever you go? :-)

In the alternate plane of the Elvendale this dragon was born. She watches over the elemental elves and keeps their magic from flowing into chaos.

*SCOUT blows out the candle with a big puff.*
SCOUT: "Paddy? Paddy!"
PADDY: "Yes little Scout?"
SCOUT: "Paddy, what should I wish for?"
PADDY: "Whatever you want Scout, but remember that there is an important rule that goes with wishing on a birthday cake."
SCOUT: "I remember Paddy! You told me last year on my first birthday! You told me that Ican't tell anyone what it is, or it won't come true, and I don't want that!." *Frowns.* "Why is it like that, Paddy? I always share things with you."
PADDY: "I know, but birthday wishes are extra special and they must remain a secret."
SCOUT: "Oh!" *Puts paw to mouth.* "Why is that Paddy?"
PADDY: "I don't know Scout." *Shrugs.* "I just know that those are the rules."
SCOUT: "Well, I don't want to break any rules, on my birthday or at any time!"
SCOUT: "Hullo everyone! Do you know what? Bears have two birthdays. I don't actually know when my first birthday was as I can't remember, so I have decided that my other birthday will be the day I came to live forever with Daddy and Paddy, which was the 27th of March! Now Paddy and I are not allowed to use the oven for fear of singeing our plush fur, so Daddy has been so kind and has baked me a birthday cake! It is a chocolate hazelnut cake, because I love chocolate anything! It is dusted with drinking chocolate. Isn't Daddy nice to do that just for me? I can't eat that cake all by myself, even with a grumbly tummy, so I am having a birthday party. It's my second birthday this year! I have invited Paddy and Daddy of course. I've also asked our pug dog Cabbage and his little sister Lettuce to come along, and also Chippy the monkey who lives in the front room. And because Cousin Paddington is stopping with us because of the nasty virus that has stopped people travelling around the world for now, he gets to be part of the celebration too! I know that everyone who I've asked to come will enjoy the occasion!
If today is your birthday too, I'd like to wish you a very happy birthday full of big little bear hugs and snuffly birthday kisses. Even if it isn't, I'd like to wish you a very happy day full of big little bear hugs and snuffly kisses. Would you like some cake too?"
This beautiful faerie tale pantomime nursery dinner set was made in England by the Shell China Company in the 1930s. It features six cups, saucers and plates as well as a teapot, milk jug, sugar bowl, platter, sandwich plate, a lidded soup tureen on its own dish and a gravy or cream jug on its own dish. Each piece is gilt edged and decorated and feature different faerie tales including: "Cinderella", "Little Red Riding Hood", "Dick Whittington and his Cat", "Jack and the Beanstalk" and "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" amongst others. The set I acquired from England, and it is a sister set to a 1920s Shell China Company nursery rhyme tea set that I was given as a gift some years ago by a close friend who knows I collect nursery ware and children\'s tea sets. The platter on which Scout's birthday cake sits features his favourite faerie tale: "Little Red Riding Hood" Each guest at the tea party also has a tiny doll (bear) sized nursery napkin which is hand embroidered with a donkey motif. There are also doll (bear) sized tea spoons which are sterling silver salt spoons, and the sugar tongs in the "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" sugar bowl is from the Eighteenth Century and is sterling silver. Their dessert spoons are sterling silver coffee spoons made by James Dixon and Sons in London in 1921.
My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his Macintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his Macintosh.
He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.
Scout was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.
Chippy the monkey came to live with me when I was four. His name is derived from his innards, which are broken chips of hazelnut shells. He was made in America some time in the mid Twentieth Century. He features beautiful brown glass eyes, a felt face, hands and feet. He was given to me by one of my Grandfather's friends who worked in a small high street toy shop which sold a mixture of new, vintage and antique toys. Chippy was vintage at the time, and had been well loved prior, so with a few holes, some worn plush and patches, he was too worn to be sold, but my family friend knew that my gentle nature and respect for my toys meant he could find a new home with me for a long time. All these decades later, she was proven right, for he still lives with me; a bit more loved, a bit more worn and with a few more patches. He also has some red chalk marks on his right hand which I remember putting on him by accident when I was six! He wanted to draw a rose on my chalkboard and I helped him do it!
Travelling all the way from London, Cousin Paddington was caught in transit thanks to the Coronavirus pandemic, so it looks like he is stopping with us for a long while. That makes me happy, as the more I look into his happy, smiling face, the more attached I am becoming to him.
Bogart has only arrived in the last few weeks. He has travelled all the way from Georgia, via Alabama as a gift to me from a friend. I look forward to getting to know his character, but I can already say that he has lovely Southern manners and seems to be a fun and gentle soul with an inquisitive nature.
Cabbage is Paddy's Pug Dog. He was a gift to Paddy from a friend who also likes Pugs. He is fiercely loyal to Paddy, Scout, Cousin Paddington and Bogart, but seldom stays around long enough to have his picture taken, as there are always new adventures to sniff out.
Lettuce, is also very recent arrival. She was a present from my two goddaughters to me to keep Cabbage company. My eldest Goddaughter, Polly, wisely suggested the name Lettuce since we already have Cabbage. She is very soft and sweet natured. She likes cuddles and warm laps a lot and like her older brother Cabbage she likes to sniff out adventures.
Having trouble with the title on this one.
... 'Bathed in Magic', 'Sun Bathing', 'Laundry Day - Faerie Style' .... sigh*
This is a tidal pool reflecting the sky with the sand in the foreground giving it an almost surreal feel. Why not add a Faerie to the magic right?
I am in the process of creating images that will be entered into CAPA's annual 'Altered Reality' competition. It's coming up at the end of the month and as an individual member my entry consists of four images.
This is definitely going to be one of them.
I'm on a Faerie kick this year ... don't ya know.
The wings belong to my granddaughter who has let me use them for all sorts of cool ideas.
Maia's reluctant dad, Brann Islwyn. The Prince of Earth and Fire, one half of the Elemental Princes of the Court of the Summerlands. He doesn't like wearing shirts.
Those tattoos, yo... took me 8 hours altogether. o.O But it was worth it, he is finally complete! ^_^ Now to redo his twin's tattoo as well... sigh.
P.S.: His name essentially means "Fire below the Grove", being the Prince of Earth and Fire, which is the inspiration for his tattoo design.
Brann is an Iplehouse Eric, and belongs to Azurielle. Faceup and tattoo work by me.

This is a Faerie from our garden, she came from Cornwall and lives out there with some other Cornish Faerie Folk. I bought her in for a little photoshoot for today brief of "dreamy."
Its a tad over processed, not sure if that is my limitations or the phone. (all my images are taken with a phone)
1910/20's saw the heyday of 'spirit photography', when the Spiritualist movement fed the insatiable hunger of the war bereaved, and unscrupulous photographers made a handsome living producing portraits with ghostly images of a loved one lost in the war hovering in the background.
Knowledge of photography was not widespread at this time and few understood that the 'spirit' could be introduced by a simple double exposure on the same photographic plate.
As a result, many Spiritualists were encouraged to believe that the camera could 'see' what the naked eye could not, a belief which helped legitimise the Cottingley fairy photographs.
Yep we're all hedgehog faeries here! ♀️💞
