Captured Fairy

The other day I found this little bird cage in my local craft shop and immediately fell in love with it. So I decided to put a captured fairy inside it and decorate it with flowers etc. I made most of the flowers myself. The little fairy is an altered Paper Whimsy image.

    Lovely Astrid.
    Just dropping by, it's been a while I know. Challenges and spring planting are keeping me so busy.
    Take care and I hope you get better weather soon. Hot here.

    Wow wow wow Astrid - this is another "eye-candy" project! The Spellbinder Roses are divine. What was once a pretty bird cage, is now a stunningly gorgeous work of art.

    I hope your weather soon improves - it's still very mixed in this part of Yorkshire - all four seasons in one day!
    Have a happy week - hugs, Sylvia x
