Sanctuary

Our annual open house is in a week and a half. I'm a bit flubbered about it because I feel absolutely behind and not at all prepared. Despite not being ready in the least, the fair folk have begun arriving.

There are little Irish cottages sprouting between the flowers and greenery.

Old pixie houses from last year have appeared in the hostas.

Luckily the critters have been doing their part. Moths have taken to dusting off the flowers, making sure the garden is tidy.

And the birds are adding extra twigs to their houses, in case a sprite needs a place to stay.

If you happen to be around, we'll be open to the public on July 2nd and you're very welcome to join us and explore our 'fairy sanctuary'.

  1. Ahhhh I will be there in spirit! Things look like they are really falling into (or growing into) place there! That moth MUST be sent from the realm of faery. . . how else does one explain the "feather flower dusters" she is sporting where antennae should be? lol

    I am sure it will be a rousing success as always! Magic, Magic everywhere. . ..
