Castles and Swans!

Just a quick little peek at some of the wonderful items that have been arriving daily here at the nursery.

I ordered these little castles directly from England (they seem to have the coolest miniatures). Now I know these are meant for painting but the whitewash on them is just amazing so they will be staying just so. I do know that some of my co-workers at my 'day' job want to paint all of the windows sparkly...but maybe another time lol.


Swans!! Can you believe how tiny these swans are? And yet, each one unique! I have ordered some of that railway model building water but alas it still has not arrived. I can't wait to see a Teacup Nursery with a castle, a moat and a swan swimming happily.











Flowers, I have been ordering more and more of these little paper flowers (I do believe they are called Mulberry flowers) as I am having a hard time matching my current products to the colours on the teacups. As each set is only really pennies, I figured I could afford to splurge.

Town Office Shadow Box

Firstly...THANK YOU to Debora for her ideas, vision and help. There is no way that I could have done this without her.

Tomorrow we will be taking down our shadow box to be placed in the town offices' front lobby display area. I was the first one to respond to their 'Call for Artisans' to display your local art work in one of their cabinets. This will be a great opportunity for the Faerie Nursery to have our products shown locally and free of charge for 6 months.

I hope you enjoy the pictures and all of the hard work that went into it. We still have to design a banner to go across the front of it that will say Enchanted Pathways Faerie Nursery - Petal Faerie, Wooden Doors and Trinket Chests.

All of the moss, tree branches and tree mushrooms are local fauna that we have found on our little walks with the puppy dogs. The table is actually a dried mushroom positioned upside down.

We decided that Sapphire would be the best little faerie to represent the Nursery. She not only is the town's new marketing colours but in all of her glitz and glamour she loves to organize all the events that happen in the garden. With her in control you can always be guaranteed that everything is in its place and ready on time. So we are positive that she will take great care of the shadow box while at the town office.
