Colorful Flower Fairies to brighten the day








Flower fairies are always fun and I especially enjoy the pocket variety.  I first saw them years ago from Sally Mavor and bought one of her kits.  She makes little felt clothes for hers and paints the faces on as well and they are stunning!  My version is more in the Waldorf style.  The faces are blank...for more imagining :) and I weave the embroidery floss on the entire "body" of the pipe cleaner to create the clothing, then add the flowers and hair and acorn cap! The resulting fairy is about 4 inches and bendable.  They can be posed repeatedly and  placed just about anywhere.
