Spring is closing in quickly, this week has been in the 40's and next week even has a few days that are supposed to be in the 50's. With the warmer weather the wild life begins to stir and things we haven't seen in months are not making appearance. I saw the first house spider last weekend, they run rampant in our house during the warmer months, so seeing the one, I know there will be more in no time. We usually have ladybugs, beetles, flies, you know, the run of the mill house "bugs". So it was only a matter of time before I caught a house fairy.
Yes, a house fairy...
We all know they exist, even if we don't want to admit it. We don't see them as often as we used to - when we were kids, losing our teeth and waiting for our dollar under our pillow. Once all our teeth had been replaced by those dollar bills,what other reasons do we really need them to show up, or so they might think. But they still come around, still keep an eye on us. I think as we get older, we just tend not to pay much attention to them, unless of course, when something goes missing. Those adorable little fairies just love to hide keys and glasses!
Anyway, since it's still chilly out, the snow hasn't exactly melted, the next few days will be rainy...and when I saw this little beauty fluttering around, I decided to trap her, but don't worry, it's only until the weather warms up and the days get longer...
I put some little purple and pink jewels in the bottom with some glitter, as it's well known, fairies love shiny things, and decorated the outside with a paper rose and shiny blue ribbon....
