It seems the best way to tell the story of this piece is to go back to the beginning. Once upon a time, a girl fell in love with a piece of paper. This is that paper. Do you blame her?
Then she also fell in love with these flowers which seemed to compliment the paper.
It took a while, but the girl decided, it is time - time to use the paper. She decided this box was the one for it was just the right size. (It may seem a bit familiar.)
The decision was made that the paper would grace the outside of this sweet box she would name ‘Fairy Whimsy’.
Then came the inside – painted to compliment the paper.
The left side with a fairy quote . . .
and the right side with another and also a fairy.
These are some details of this piece that started with paper affection.
The fairy . . .
her matching wings,
a glass button (or three) to highlight snippets of the paper,
and the flowers and mushrooms that grow in fairyland.
You never know where love might take you.
Just gorgeous! Beautiful paper and beautiful bear Magic.
