One of my wind chimes kinda disintegrated and fell apart....it was old....but i loved the little metal faeries so much, i wanted to recycle them somehow. So i have been stringing them with glass pearls and crystals and tiny bells...kinda shabby and simple but i still love the way they are turning out.....

Micro faceted heart shaped briolettes of soft pink rose quartz are wrapped in sterling silver and hang from my hand forged oblong sterling silver hoops. The high quality gemstones seem to glow from within and have remarkable clarity for a stone that can be a little cloudy and included. These are great everyday earrings with their powdery pink go-with-anything tone. Perfect for travel as well, as slipping the gemstone off the hoop will give you a more casual look.

I went to the Kansas City Renaissance Faire last weekend

finally, we had to say goodbye.

bye faerie-god-mother!

nah...your with me anyway :)

I am the leaf faerie, born of the earth and nourished by the elements of rain and sun. I herald the seasons, provide shelter to man and beast and tower even over the trees themselves. My lofty heights have inspired mortals to built cathedrals and small children to dance in an attempt to catch my leaves in their descent to the ground.

A cute faerie who loves to visit gardens filled with wysteria flowers. The original aceo is in the hands of an awesome collector.

My daughter Tara's faerie garden now has a home in a tree. We spied this faerie enjoying the sun on her balcony shortly after moving in...
