Fairy Clothes made from Flowers

I'm working on an article on my Fairy Gardens; I worked on theses gardens several years ago. Much fun was had! So when I made this mandala I felt it looked like Fairy clothes. Pantaloons made by a morning glory and and a bright yellow daisy dress, with collar. Ah, the imagination!

Fairy Wings

These Fairy Wings are actually a close up of dragonfly wings in kaleidoscope form. The body of the dragonfly creates the brownish circle you see. I considered printing this mandala on transparent material, cutting them out and making wings for a physical 3D fairy, but it hasn't happened yet.

Time to renew my Fairy Gardens, parts survive others don't. So I get new plants, found a tiny coleus, constructed a new jointed paper fairy seen in the mandala. When I first see it - all I see is patterns and I have to hunt for the fairy. It's easy once you find her face. Enjoy the garden!

Orchid Fairy

Orchid Fairy - those of you who read the blog last spring know I have a thing for Flower Fairy gardens, to me this is a ballerina fairy - the buds of the orchid are her toe shoes and the bright spot is her head.  I posted this to Facebook but apparently it didn't take, because these few days later I cannot find it on my Nature Mandala site or my regular site and the link to this blog doesn't work.  So don't know what to say, except enjoy it here!
