adventureativeness

okay fine....

it looks like this whole blog didn't address the 

'thought of the week' message! 

but hey it does have pretty colours...

and a brand new word that everyone should start using...

adventureativeness

true for everyone (with fandaling) (or with grapes)

that has proof (with inkling) (or with potatoes)        

one can feel (with hasping) (or with apricots)
 
the deep root (with submarining) (or with carrots)

that can pounce (with leapfrogging) (or with apples)

as adventureativeness 

please note: this word does not exist in any dictionary...

but i like it anyway, so it should

and that have a spunk (with zinging) (or with lemons)

to even the littlest (with teensy-wensing) (or with blue berries)

of proven goofiness (with ding-batting)  (or with bananas)

can betwixt (with encompassing)  (or with pumpkins)

at the edge of time (with lastingness) (or with herbs)

to all wishing to be a

 'flower, fairy or even a strawberry' 

or an adventureativeness

Another visit from Debora...

Last week the nursery had Debora over for another visit. During that time, our first wee wee wee little faerie was born. I mean, she is tiny. Now please don't think for a minute that I am exaggerating! She stands a mere one inch in height, minus the hairdo ;)  Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to name her before she flew out of the nursery to go and explore a new garden at Debora's house. But as she does live close by and I do promise to give you an update on how she is doing soon.

 A big thank you goes out to Blissful Silks for providing a lot of the petals that this little faerie has in her skirt. Please visit her site on Etsy as she has the most wonderful selection of silk flowers. Blissful Silks

Faerie Dust

The wee little glass vials came in today. And wow, are they ever tiny!! Who makes these kinds of things? They even come with a spill proof twist on lid!

These will be used to hold Faerie Dust in the little wooden boxes that go with the Faerie Doors and Petal Faeries.

Are they not the cutest little bottles you have ever seen!!
