"Faerie Guard"
"The faeries that live at merridale orchard are quiet and peaceful.
They are notable to defend themselves and rely on the sentry who lives in this gatekeepers house, to warn them when danger is near.
And Scrumpy is his name."
Seeing these incredible miniatures, brought back some wonderful childhood memories of a place we called Faerie land.
It was a beautiful wooded garden belonging to a neighbour across from our family cottage. There, we gathered well water in glass milk jugs, but not before we ran with the faeries. Zig zaging through the magical trees, chasing each other to the rivers edge where the giant old wooden water wheel cascaded and soaked us in mist.
Those milk jugs were heavy and cold and the journey home seemed endless, but we couldn't wait to return...to the wonder of it all.
“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”
― W.B. Yeats
Robin Burke Liva of Middletown thrilled other Museum visitors today! It's not every day you get to see a beautiful faerie!

The eyes were a bit of a challenge as I haven't made them like this before, but I think they turned out ok.

On our way to Inverness was this small church on a back road with the most amazing place in the back, down a hill. It's actually the same place where the "Spin and Snap" photo was from, but now with an actual picture!
It was probably the most moved I've been by nature; it also apparently had a high concentration of faeries and was used for a lot of ceremonies. Really cool place.
As for this photo, I really like the subject matter, but for some reason the composition seems off to me. I dunno.
Another one of the many Faeries that were running loose at Estrella Mountain Regional Park last weekend.
Thanks to all of them for allowing me to photograph them. If you see your photo in here and would like a copy, just send me your e-mail address and I will e-mail back what I have.
Florida Renaissance Festival
This young lady was easily my favorite subject at this year's festival. The detail in her costume was amazing as was her role playing to stay in character.
These gorgeous and delicate and translucent pink flowers were waving gently in the breeze just above the large patch of pom pom-like asters I posted a photo of a couple of days ago.
To me, these flowers (which I believe to be a variety of pansy...?) looked like beautiful little pink faeries, or perhaps angels, definitely something winged and delicate!
Hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday!

Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.
~William Butler Yeats, "The Land of Heart's Desire," 1894
Sigh. This place. This was a chance glimpse while taking a wrong turn. I stopped in my tracks and explored the valley and met a gardener who said that he maintains it for a golf course. The whole valley was a cosmic wonderland with flowers bobbing in the wind and the birds playing over head, going completely wild.

I felt a bit of chill as I wait for the Night Faeries toarrive in the open field of the Enchanted Forest. Thelittle glittery stars and big bright moon cast light intothe misty open field. The Night Faeries live in abig cave and have daily house tasks. They help each other in cleaning, decorating, sewing, and other crafts. They stay inside the cave to avoid sunlight because the Sun's heat burns their light pale skin.During the quiet, misty, dark night of the Enchanted Forest, the Night Faeries come out in-groups, Like a big black shadow spreading over the sky into the open field.The Night Fairies enjoy the dancing, singing, playing, giggling, and circlingaround as they fly. At the same time, they enjoy ahandful of fruit, nuts, vegetables, and bugs in theopen field. As I am writing down my observations of the
Night Faeries in my diary, I accidentally dropped my little
Flashlight. The light struck the eyes of one of the
Night Fairies called Sheekoo. This is how I came about
Creating my posture of Sheekoo as she tried to cover
The flashlight from hitting her eyes.
Wow. Karla of Karla's cottage put together lovely books of Faerie pages. Each page is wonderfully crafted.
Well, hello, little faerie. Welcome to our magical dream. The fireflies are dancing, and the frogs are playing in the rain.
The Peatbog Faeries play The Old Fire Station, Carlisle, Cumbria
The Peatbog Faeries are a largely instrumental Celtic fusion band. Formed in 1991, they are based in Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye, Scotland.
Their music embodies many styles and influences, including folk, electronica, rock and jazz, - but their main influence is traditional celtic music. The band's unique sound is created through a mix of programmed effects and traditional celtic arrangements, played on bagpipes, fiddles, and whistles.
The band have twice won "Live Band of the Year" at the Scottish Traditional Music Awards and were nominated for "Live Band of the Year" at the BBC Radio 2 folk awards.
The faeries took their day off and went relaxing in the middle of the forest....Les fées ont pris congé et sont allé se relaxer au beau milieu de la forêt! :)
This is a little collection of my Mums beautiful hand made one off faerie sculptures....I just had to slip them in. I did a craft stall with her at 'the 3 wishes faerie fest' last year. I just love them, they are amazing pieces of art and with beautiful spirits.
