What do you sell in your Etsy shop?
Fairy Houses, Fairy furniture, jewelry, soon I will be adding my paintings and drawings
About Me:
Nature is the best teacher of color and pattern...I love examining flowers and leaves up close. I prefer to recharge in a lovely garden or in a park full of large old trees.
I have always enjoyed miniatures and making doll furniture from found objects. I feel there is something magical in tiny plates and little beds. I have been painting and drawing fairies since I was 14 years old and it still is my preferred creative outlet.
Inspirations:
Nature!! I also love to watch movies that are visually appealing like, Midsummers Night Dream, Chocolat, Cronicles of Narnia, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory....Merlin...
Music inspires me as well- especially anything with violin, harp or flute in it.
Favourite Fantasy Authors:
C.S. Lewis!!!!! Tad Williams, George MacDonald, Tolkien
Favourite Fantasy Artists:
James Christiansen, Maxfield Parrish, Brian and Wendy Froud, Howard David Johnson, Josephine Wall

Blessings!

I took a few of my fairy houses out to my favorite forest spot and took pictures this weekend. I had a blast wading around in the water and hiking around the trees, finding special spots for my fairy dwellings.

I love how the pictures turned out, so I plan to take more houses out....I also would like to start creating a story around them and I have been playing around with an outline. Writing it really tough, though, especially to do it well, so who knows if I w… Continue

You're welcome! You can shake that funk ... try to chase it away with some glitter and upbeat music. That's what I always do. Chocolate never hurts, either. ;D
