these tiny little shrooms were on a old fallen tree, that has laid on the hillside for more than 25 yrs... covered in mosses and tiny fungus.

 

My friend Matthew has a beautiful moss / lichen shot this week too!

Sometimes I’m such a Faerie!

 

But it is in our nature to fly high

 

Dance in the glow of silliness

 

Dizzy and dithering as a bumbling Boo! Bee

 

This was my favourite of Jan’s photo shoot.

 

Look at those eyes, awwww…

Burning brightest Amber…

Like toffee apples…

Making that hard crunch in your mind…

That fermented anticipation of your lips coaxed saliva…

And that, that….. ummm! as the bite, breaks, that hard glazed skin…

Lost in the rush of juices…sweet…sweet…surrender!!!

Wishing each of you the inner peace I'm working so hard to find.

Some little talismans I used to make

PADDY: “Look! It's a card with me on it! It was taken whilst on an adventure at Veg Out Community Gardens in St Kilda. I was having a rest next to some pretty flowers. I had just been playing with some metal hoops which are great for little bears to swing around on.”

 

SCOUT: “Where am I, Paddy?”

 

PADDY: “Well, this was taken before you came to live in your forever home with Daddy and me.”

 

SCOUT: “Oh!” *Puts paw to mouth.*

 

PADDY: “This card must be from our special friend! How clever to make this card just for me! I wonder what it says. Shall we find out?”

 

SCOUT: “Oh yes please!” *Trembles with excitement.*

 

My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his mackintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his mackintosh.

 

He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.

 

Scout was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.

 

This beautiful nursery tea set comprising of a tea pot, milk jug and sugar bowl are very Art Deco. They were obviously made for the child of a very wealthy family, as the set is made of very heavy sterling silver. The hallmarks on each piece (including on the inner lip of the teapot lid) indicates that it was made in Sheffield by the well known English silversmith James Dixon of James Dixon and Sons in 1921. The pot also features an ebonised finial and handle which are affixed with tiny sterling silver screws and wingnuts, just like a real teapot!

 

The cups and saucers come from a beautiful nursery tea set that is made by the Shell China company in the 1910s. It features six cups, saucers (not all the set is being used today) as well as a teapot, milk jug and sugar bowl, all gilt and featuring different nursery rhymes including: “See Saw Margery Daw”, “Jack and Jill”, “This Little Pig Went to Market”, “Taffy was a Welshman”, “Ride a Cock Horse to Banbury Cross”, “Simple Simon”, “Little Jack Horner”, “Old Mother Goose” and “I Saw a Ship a Sailing” amongst others. It is the prequel set to the Shell China nursery rhyme and faerie tale tea sets I have from the 1920s and 1930s. The designs are very Edwardian and the set is made up of smaller pieces.

Faeries sit atop the towering Redwoods and Forestmen climb long spiraling staircases to reach their homes in the branches.

“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you, because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”

~Roald Dahl

 

Taken on the Oregon coast, where old forests meet with the ocean, and the mist creates a wonderful, ethereal glow in the sunlight. I can imagine all sorts of magic here.

“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.”

― W.B. Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire

In a grotto in Baltimore on St. Patrick's Day I captured this image of a Faerie playing beautifully strange music.

 

We don't believe in them.

Our loss.

I've now seen the chairs in daylight and without snow. Not nearly so bewitching and beguiling. They are white molded plastic and sell for over $900 a piece. Not that I wouldn't want one...

This is almost SOOC only did a touch of contrast. To me it reminds me of a fairy tale book I had with illustrations. (c) 2012
