Enchanted Fairy Woods Filled With Magic Whimsical Folk Art Print

The Song of Wandering Aengus
~~Willaim Butler Yeats
I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread;
And when white moths were on the wing,
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
I dropped the berry in a stream
And caught a little silver trout.

When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire aflame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And some one called me by my name:
It had become a glimmering girl
With apple blossom in her hair
Who called me by my name and ran
And faded through the brightening air.

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among the long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Greetings lovers of the fairy folk.  Today, I'm hightlighting this sassy redheaded fairy.  I am so happy how she came out ... I really don't know where all of these delightful fairies comes from ... but I like to think the fairy folk have a hand in it.  Enjoy!

Blossom Fairy Art Card - OOAK - Quote and Poem by William Blake

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. ~Anais Nin

The Blossom ~William Blake

Merry, merry sparrow!
Under leaves so green
A happy blossom
Sees you, swift as arrow,
Seek your cradle narrow,
Near my bosom.
Pretty, pretty robin!
Under leaves so green
A happy blossom

I'm highlighting my Blossom Fairy Art Card ACEO which I just re-listed today at my Etsy shop.  Embellished with a vintage, Art Nouveau touch.  Enjoy and thanks for looking.

Fairy Poem "The Stolen Child" and Fairy Of Delight Whimsical Folk Art Print

Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.
~William Butler Yeats, "The Stolen Child"  

I delight my soul in simple and small things.

May Your Day Be Bright With Promise

Peace and Happiness to ALL ! 

All You Need Is Love - Some Food For Thought - Fairy Of LOVE Whimsical Folk Art Print

"All you need is love. 
But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt."

~Charles M. Schultz

And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
- Marianne Williamson.  

I read through "The Course In Miracles" some years ago.  It has changed me for life ... and put me on the path of spiritual self-discovery.  The one big, huge thing I got from it was LOVE is all there is, LOVE is the answer.  So simple, but yet so very hard to comprehend.  It's strange, we don't comprehend, but somewhere "inside", where our Sweet Soul dwells, everything is understood. 

Happiness, Peace and LOVE to all !

Mermaid Assemblage Alterted Art Piece

The Sea Maid
from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream  
To where I watch on the yellow sands,
and they pluck sweet music with sea-cold hands.
They bring me coral and amber clear.
But when the stars in heaven appear,
their music ceases, they glide away.
They swim for their grottoes across the bay.
Then listen only to my shrill tune,
the surfy tide, and the wondering moon.

Today, I would like to highlight a Mermaid Assemblage Altered Art piece that I recently listed at my Etsy shop.  As with most of my altered art pieces, I give them a "vintage/Victorian" feel but at the same time it is contemporary.  Please feel free to visit a while there.  

 I bow to the Divine within you.  I honor the place within you where the whole Universe dwells.
 

Believe And Watch Your Dreams Come True ! 
Happiness to ALL !  

Fairy Queen - Inspires and Guides

Greetings all who come in Peace and Compassion.  Below is my Fairy Queen Plaque Altered Art Piece that is available at my Etsy Shop.  She has a "vintage" feel to her and there is a fairy poem on the back so you can use this as a plaque or an "ornament". 

 Many a time I have pondered about the Fairy Queen.  From early childhood, through the years until the present moment.  Mysterious and marvelous is she … real to me and existing in my heart and soul.  She can be found somewhere on this earthy plane, not to be seen by most.  Still, a favored few can see her if only from afar.  

 I will be coming back to write of her from time to time.  Below is a marvelous poem by Kipling.  It just sings to my heart.  I hope it does for you as well. 

I have a thousand men," said he,
"To wait upon my will;
And towers nine upon the Tyne,
And three upon the Till."

"And what care I for your men? " said she,
"Or towers from Tyne to Till?
Still you must go with me," said she,
"To wait upon my will.

And you may lead a thousand men
Nor ever draw the rein,
But before you lead the Fairy Queen
'Twill burst your heart in twain."

He has slipped his foot from the stirrup-bar,
The bridle from his hand,
And he is bound by hand and foot
To the Queen of Fairy Land.

~Rudyard Kipling~

Fairy Of Sweet - Art Print, Positive Affirmation and Positive Quotes

I release any unpleasantness from the past and let it sail away.
I envision it going through the mists of my memories,
over the horizon, and out of sight. LOVE rushes in to fill
any empty places within my heart or mind. Now I am free
to do what is before me and free to do it better than ever
before. I am free to enrich my life and everything concerning me.
~Unknown

Fairy Presence and Approaches

Greetings all lovers of the Faery Folk. I have gathered this information through the years regarding signs of fairy approach and presence … some of these signs could also be, some might say, the presence of spirits. I know, I know I watch too much Ghost Adventures. But, it’s so much fun and very interesting not to mention a tad bit scary. Please feel free to comment and add any other signs that you may know of.



Signs of Faeries Approach and Presence - . A sudden unexplained trembling or whispering of leaves. A whirlwind or dust devil. The bending of grass blades with no perceptible cause. Sudden unexplained chills and goose bumps when alone in nature. The feeling of an insect walking through your hair, when there is none. A rippling of the water when not caused by a fish, a breeze or something tangible. Extreme silliness and times of uncontrolled laughter. An unexplainable loss of time.

Fairy Poem, HOPE quotes and Comfort Fairy

Greetings and Good Intentions To All ! Below is another poem from Mistress Meg, with permission of course. I'll be sure to link to her when she does get a blog. I like her poems, they make me twinkle!

IT’S ME AGAIN !!!
Each day I look and live in hope
Some fairies there?..........Oh nope.
Another day - and no-one here,
A wilting fairy, me, I fear.
And so I slowly fade away,
Perhaps one will come.....another day.
Until then, I’ll bid adieu,
With glittery wishes - from me to you.
~Mistress Meg~


HOPE – that sure is something we all need….how can we live without it? Here are some quotes on hope to give you a bit more if you need it.

“Hope, like the gleaming taper's light, adorns and cheers our way; and still, as darker grows the night, emits a brighter ray.” Oliver Goldsmith (1730-1774)

“Hope is the thing with feathers, which perches in the soul, and sings the tune without words, and never stops at all.” ~Emily Dickinson

“Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?

I have included my COMFORT Fairy ... still have to create HOPE Fairy in the future ... may you have comfort all of your days, and give comfort and kindness to all that you meet.

Faerie Fairy Eleven Star Information And Lore

Faerie – Fairy - Elven Star:

Seven Pointed Stars, called "Faerie or Elven Stars" represent a gift from Faerie to humans to bridge the understanding between the Mortal human realm and that of Faerieland. The 7 pointed star is known as a gateway symbol, a Gate or entrance between our world and that of Faery, the Otherworld. Each point on the star represents a gateway or path of the Higher Self to prepare one for entrance into Faery.

The seven pointed star has a few names: septagram, septacle, Elven Star or Fairy Star. The number seven corresponds to the spirit realm, which is why this symbol is associated with elves or fairies. It is also a representation of those who believe in Faeries, consider themselves to be Fae, or blessed by the Fae.

This seven-pointed star (septagram) represents a belief in fairies and magic. Each of the seven points is believed to have a different meaning, although there are several common interpretations. Some say each point represents a pathway, or the "seven rays of manifestation of the Higher Self."

1 - power, personal will and determination
2 - unconditional love, wisdom and growth
3 - knowledge and intelligence
4 - harmony and tranquillity
5 - the powers of mind and science
6 - devotion and honesty
7 - magic

Another premise is that the points signify the seven magical elements - earth, air, fire, water, light, life and magic - or the inner and outer elements - earth, air, fire, water, heaven, earth and self. A further suggestion is that they represent the seven directions - north, south, east, west, above, below and within.

The number seven is believed to be a magical or lucky number, and can be used to indicate appreciation and knowledge of fairies.

ANGELITE Stone Of The Angels

Well, I have decided that once in a while I'll post about a particular stone or crystal as I just love the energy of these wonderful gifts from our beautiful home - Earth. So here's some information on one of my very favorite stones, or you may just consider this folklore, whatever suits your sensibility. In any event, I hope you enjoy the post. Oh, I have included some pictures of the stone as well as one of my angel pieces from my Etsy shop.

ANGELITE is a stone that can bring serenity, inner peace, and a sense of calm, relieving feelings of being overwhelmed and stressed. Angelite dispeals fear, heals anger, and encourages forgiveness. Promotes compassion and understanding. Considered a gift from the angels.

Angelite is a perfect stone to use to contact and communicate with the angels and spiritually aligned beings to receive information for yourself and others. Good for dream work and their meanings.

Considered a third-eye and crown Chakra stone. It is an excellent choice to help smooth your emotional body. Excellent at balancing, polarizing and aligning the physical body with the Aura. Helps self expression, communication, and allows us to speak our minds and become more assertive.

This stone is formed from celestite that has been compressed for many millions of years.
