I recently found this fairy in a thrift shop. I have a friend who is an avid collector of fairies and this will be a gift to her.. You can't really see it in this photo but the statuary has a typical fairy style cap (a cap of leaves) and fairy wings - not angel wings. I've been educated about these things by my friend.
Won't you bring your favorite drink and join us at Elizabeths blog for our Tuesday get together?
I love the fairy Darla - I was very much a fairy fancier as a child. I note the pointed hem on her dress, very much a fairy indicator too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet fairy.
ReplyDeleteOh how exciting! It's lovely to know someone who is personally knowledgable about such things as fairies. Since we have a fairy house in our front yard, I suppose we should know these fine points. However, our knowledge is limited to what a small child has shared with us. Love the little statuette and your friend will love it, too.
ReplyDeleteYes, there's definitely a difference between fairy and angel wings. Sometimes you need to know what to notice :) A nice gift!
ReplyDeleteHappy T Tuesday
I am SO sorry I didn't see your post today, Darla. You will have to forgive me, because I just now noticed your request. You are linked, and I am sorry it is so late in the day.
ReplyDeleteUnlike you and Divers and Sundry, I had no idea there was a difference between angel and fairy wings. Thanks for pointing that out to me.
Thanks for sharing this lovely fairy and your cup that by now I'm sure you have filled with tea for us at T this Tuesday. Again, my apologies for the lateness of your entry.
thank you for sharing this blissful looking fairy. I'm sure your friend will love this. Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteHi oh I love your fairy-your friend will love it
ReplyDeleteHappy T Day Kathy
You have really good luck in thrift store for certain. Better than me. Maybe your area just has a better thrift store base. Either way, nice find! happy T day. Hugs-Erika
