Alice's Lullaby

Hi everyone...it's been quiet here in my little fairyland lately...summertime and letting my hands heal after all the houses I made in the spring for the Fairie Festival.  I wanted to share this special commission called "Alice's Lullaby."  This was created for a gift from a Grandmother to her first grandchild.  It is filled with all sorts of treasures and will hopefully become a family heirloom.  Little Alice was born two weeks ago - so I hope she and her little fairy enjoy the house!


Alice's Lullaby...where sweet dreams & lullabies await!

Hand painted armoire filled with family treasures!

What little fairy wouldn't want this for her nursery?

The crib bedding is made from leftover swatches of the real nursery bedding! 

A train for 1 Grandfather, a camera for the other.  A sewing basket for her maternal Grandmother and a Blessed Mother charm belonging to or her late Paternal Mother.  The 2 flags in the thimble represent her parents countries!

How cute is the miniature jack-in-the-box?

The mobile above the crib is made of crystals ...it just glistens when the sun hits it!

Every nursery needs a rocking chair and this one is covered in leaves!

This daffodil is strung with miniature white lights which makes this fairy house a night light too!

A heart shaped sign above the door lets everyone know this is Alice's house!

Nite. Nite!

The crib is covered in grasses!

Strawberry House

This is the final house that has been built for the Fairie Festival next weekend!  "Whew!" There will be lots of happy fairies next weekend with new homes!  Enjoy your tour of "Strawberry House"...it's ripe for the picking!

A basket of fresh bread sits right beside the kitchen table!


"Strawberry Fields" sits on the edge of a lush field, but far from the farmers eyes!
 The kitchen table looks like a picnic in red & white check w/ an acorn teapot, teacup, sea glass plates and pine cone candlestick.


Come on in!

An aerial view of the leaf, vine, pink & white flowers & berry roof!  The little red butterfly comes by a lot!

A child's block end table w/ a seed pod lamp and grosgrain ribbon curtains!

The hutch was painted to go with the summer / strawberry theme!
This fairy house was made from an antique bird cage!

An antique lace rug and elaborate leaf chair w/ flower pillow.



Reminds you of strawberry picking in the summer doesn't it?
