The Chicory Fairy

Every year, on the first sunny day after the first rain of the season, a ritual occurs throughout the bay area...
We call it the Launch of the Faeries... it is actually subterranean termite alates, launching from their nests in countless thousands, overwhelming the predators and ensuring that some survive to proceed with the next generation.

This little one’s dying today…
I think she came in for somewhere warm. I had to put aside my own general fear and revulsion to put a little tent over her, so it wouldn’t be so bright.
normally they run away really fast if they see you, if they can do, and she couldn’t.
We must all farewell her and wish her luck.
Just wanted to say, the stuff I tell y’all here, it’s like the faerie tale portion of my life. I don’t tell you the terrible stuff.
Try and enjoy your lives, won’t you..
Music. Some Cass McCombs.
Or some Andrew Bird:
'Get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game
Come to the front of the class and we'll measure your brain
We'll give you a complex and we'll give it a name
Get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game
Can't have the cream when the crop and the cream are the same
Liquid or gas no more than the glass will contain
When you talk about the hand of glory
A tale that's rather grim and gory
Is it just another children's story that's been de-clawed?
When the tales of brothers Grimm and Gorey have been outlawed
I think they're gonna make you start over
You don't want to start over
Put your backpack on your shoulder
Be the good little soldier
Take your places now
'Cause we're all predisposed
Measuring cups, play a new game
Front of the class, measure your brain
Give you a complex and we'll give it a name
When you talk about the hand of glory
A tale that's rather grim and gory
Is it just another children's story that's been de-clawed?
When the tales of brothers Grimm and Gorey have been outlawed
Put your backpack on your shoulder
Be the good little soldier
It's no different when you're older
You're predisposed
That's all for questions now
The case is closed'
Measuring Cups - Andrew Bird
I think this has got to be my cutest needle felted project so far.. I just made her for Krystee's birthday which is Sunday. She and i have been friends/sisters for over 20 years now.. hard to believe. Anyway, she LOVES faeries and even hinted at getting a felted one. She has NO IDEA how cute of a faerie she's getting though.. lol I've got to start working on another one to sell asap!!
If you look carefully, you'll see a tag with the number 105 on this faerie's wing. She had been tagged by friends of ours who were in costume as faerie hunters.
At a fork in the road between Madron & Morvah. Ayes summons up some faeries, so we can ask if they know tonight lottery numbers.
Spinel Faerie is the first in a series of Gemstone Faeries. She is about 9.25 inches tall, and is made of Japanese glass seed beads, organic cotton fiber fill & thread, and Swarovski pearls. She will have natural black spinel on her dress. All the colors used represent colors of spinel. She is ball-jointed, and has 13 points of articulation.
