Beautiful North Wales Black Pearl Party - August 2013

FaerieWorlds festival near Eugene, OR on Aug 2, 2008.

Holly Faerie is a OOAK beaded art doll. She is bal-jointed and has 13 points of articulation. She is made of Japanese glass seed beads, organic cotton thread & fiber fill, ahimsa silk thread, and Swarovski pearls. She is about 9 inches tall. There is a lot of interesting lore about the holly plant, I posted a little about that on my website, if anyone wants to read it, here is the link: faeriedustdolls.wordpress.com/2015/08/17/holly-faerie/

You know how to make snow angels, but you don't know fun until you make snow faeries. Here's how:

1. Find a clean area with lots of soft snow.

2. Take a huge step forward on one foot.

3. Take a huge step to the side with your other foot.

4. Strike a pose.

5. Gently fall on your side.

6. Use one arm to create your wing(s).

7. Laugh a lot!

 

We felt this one was our best, but it was hilarious creating them and seeing the silly poses decorating our yard.

The bridge is said to mark the place where a fairy wife of a MacLeod chief said her final farewell to her husband before she left him to live amongst her own people.

 

The story goes that the chief of the MacLeod’s wanted to marry a Faerie princess. The king of the Faeries, Oberon, agreed to the match, but only on condition that after a year and a day had lapsed the princess must return to her own people. So the marriage took place, and a son was born of the union, but after the allotted year and day was over, the princess had no choice but to return to the Land of Faerie.

 

She parted from her husband and child at the Fairy Bridge. But the story does not end there; one day the infant son began to cry, as children do. The Faerie princess, upon hearing her child’s cry, returned from the Land of Faerie and comforted him, wrapping the child in a Faerie shawl. This shawl was preserved; it is the famed Faerie Flag of the MacLeod clan, which can be seen today at Dunvegan Castle.
