I never got a chance to introduce Moonmallow’s newest little friend, Fairy Floss. She joined my plushie family during the holidays and was a decoration (ornament) on our tree. She was one of a few limited edition ALS ornaments Holly made and I felt lucky to get her!
“Fairy floss” is another term (in Australian English) for cotton candy, which is what I think she looks like. ^__^ She’s so sweet; I couldn’t resist naming her something yummy.
Ageratum houstonianum, commonly known as flossflower, bluemink, blueweed, pussy foot or Mexican paintbrush, is a cool-season annual plant often grown as bedding in gardens.
This herbaceous annual or dwarf shrub grows to 0.3–1 m (1 ft 0 in–3 ft 3 in) high, with ovate to triangular leaves 2–7 cm (0.79–2.76 in) long, and blue flowerheads (sometimes white, pink, or purple). The flower heads are borne in dense corymbs. The ray flowers are threadlike and fluff-haired, leading to the common name. The narrow lanceolate bracts are pointed, denticulate only at the top and glandular hairy. The flowering period is from May to November in the northern hemisphere.
Das kleine Floß der Kindergartenkinder aus Pirna vor dem Blauen Wunder in Dresden. Die Bundstake gesetzt , die Pätschen noch nicht in ihren Führungen, ruht das eigentliche Floß sicher vertäut am Ufer der Elbe, noch herrscht morgendliche Ruhe.

This poor chap looked miserable as sin when we first walked past.
A couple of minutes later, 2 little girls came to buy some candy floss and his face lit up.
The man lives to make the kids happy, bless him!
I couldn't get over the incredible display put on by the Ruccia-Scoparia plant.
The range of colours is truly amazing.
Only a relatively small number of flowering plants remained on this ridge at the twilight of the season.
I'd love to see it when it's in full swing!

This bird waited for 30 minutes with its beak 6 inches from the water surface before landing this tasty meal. She was 2 meters from me with the camera being 2 cm above the water surface. Almost full frame with very very little post production with LR, CS2 and Noise Ninja.

i have a new love, linen embroidery floss. the colors are wonderful, and i love how it works; easily and quickly. just beautiful.
Hey, look what I made! The result of the woodworking class I took during the winter. A special box to put all my embroidery floss.
It was the first time since sixth grade that I worked with wood, so I had a lot to learn but I'm really happy with the end result! All it needs now is handles on the drawers and maybe some paint (haven't decided on that yet).
