New Wings, New Year



DEAR FAIRY FOLLOWERS, 
Now that the excitement of present giving is over I thought you might like to see what Lolly and Buncle got for Christmas. As I hinted to you before , their wings were really past their best and so 
I made some new everyday wings for them - strong and durable made of cotton and stiff enough to withstand all weathers !





 However the best present was to come ( and for all you followers who remember Lolly longing from some twinkle when she spilt the sequins ) new party dresses and wings were next to be discovered amongst the tissue and ribbon ... Lolly and Buncle were so delighted to look like proper fairies with sheeny- shiny dresses and twinkly- winkly wings ...


Their sashes are made of shimmering organza ...


 and their silk and taffeta skirts whisper and rustle when they move ...


They were so happy they danced around the desk ...



and they flew around the Pussy Willow twigs ...

and they swung around the fairy lights ...


 and partied in their party dresses all day long !

 As evening fell Lolly gathered up their little Christmas Lavender bag ( a present from Auntie Everlasting )

 and together they decided they would pack away their party clothes with the Lavender bag to keep them fresh and nice until the next Celebration comes around.

 They still have a few more days to wear their party clothes before they must put back on their garden dresses ...so until then SEASONS GREETINGS to you all and we wish you a FAIRY HAPPY NEW YEAR too . Do come back and visit us at Betty's Cottage in 20015 !

LOVE FROM,  Betty x
