fairy gardens

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!

bright colors

Back to Circles; this one a potato vine and red geranium - it's time for planting out of the annuals! We had hail yesterday which didn't help the broad leaves of the potato vine or the rhubarb but new leaves will grow. The rest of the garden got a pruning, but survived. Deep breath!

curling petals

curling petals

I liked the curling petals and the colors of this daisy.

orchid buds

Another cross shape, this time orchid buds arching to the center.

more spring flowers

Loved the pastel colors in this cross shaped mandala.

daffodil

Daffodils always remind me of Spring! liked the way this mandala formed a square with the elements of the flower. We are having a windy April here in Colorado, it's blowing outside my window right now.

Spring Snow Storm

We continue to have Spring snows in Colorado - the good thing is they melt fast! The last one flocked the trees with white and made this Celtic Cross look like lace in the middle - and the blue sky was really that blue!
