Furzey Gardens, New Forest National Park

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.

I really like this drum and now have it on the super sale shelf.. This guy reminds me of something I read in a Charles De Lint book.

Behold - you have been sprinkled with faery dust!

Camelot Days, Hollywood, FL

These two beautiful faeries noticed me taking candids of them so they walked over to where I was sitting and graciously gave me some true close-ups.

I'm kinda glad I waited until the neighbor was done mowing his lawn and the kids were done walking home from school ;-)

Regifted to me by Joie for holiday 06. It is full of Froudy faeries. It's really, really awesome. I heart Brian Froud.

talking to the little faerie sitting on my cousins window sill in her bathroom. In order to reach the faerie I had to stand on a precariously thin toilet cover on my tip toes...(its a high window- and the faerie seemed lonely).

This Faerie loves to dance to Hip-Hop music. she hangs out in cities whenever there´s a chance of dancing...She´s really an urbanite, and can guide the other faeries around the city with her eyes closed!
