A way with the Fairies

The Fairies are taking over my life and I am enjoying it.  See my blog on Templemorefairytrail.blogspot.com  and enjoy my progress with this exciting project.  Making the houses has been a treat and forcing me to look out side the box for items that are small enough and will blend into the background.  However at first I was playing too safe and it was not magical. Since then I have gone on to develop the following styles and when I put them on site the magic started to happen.  It will take the best part of 6 months to get it all finished but who is in a rush when adventure is at play!! Loving it!! My mind is working overtime with all the possibilities.  The part I am enjoying most is the smiles on peoples faces when I tell them what I am doing. We are all children at heart.  Just wait until the children start finding them

There are horse tracks in the Park. I am expecting to find discarded Horse Shoes any day that the Fairies have decided to turn into houses. I can already see where they would go.  It is coming into the season where the nuts fall from the trees so again it will be interesting to see what plans the Fairies have for these.

Entering the world of Fairies

I have decided to explore Fairy Tree Houses. Every time I take a walk in our beautiful park with all the very old trees I start imaginng what a house would look like if it was set into the roots of the trees.  Therefore after photographing the trees I am going to set about creating little houses to fit into the trees as my next project.  I am also going to make fairy houses out of used metal cans and wrap them in timber etc to create handing fairy houses.  Over the next month I will be amaking these and hope to create a blog for you to follow. So today I am going to post some photos taken this week and where I am going to start from.

 

Love the mushrooms growing up so high on the tree near the hole.  I can see a fairy ladder dropped from the hole to climb up on.
