Magic Happens in Every Garden.

All you have to do is look.

Helping the Home Place Fairies spread fairy dust on lovely June Poppies in Maine.

Here Ye, Here Ye,

Come together in Celebration,

both young and old.

Today is the day, it’s that time of the year…

The Grand Fairy Tea Party!

A culmination of Summer from Spring,

when Fairy Folk and humans gather together

for joyous song and dancing,

appreciation and respect.

The Fairies announce this gathering

and welcome you here.

Fairies believe in the Magic of Possibilities.

They understand the power of wishful thinking and the magic that is nature and the natural world surrounding us.

Lula Belle is the tallest of the Home Place Fairy Folk and because of this one fact she is the first of the fairies to emerge from their winter chambers each and every spring.

Her job is to determine exactly when the spring winds are just right for sprinkling  fairy dust on the blueberry fields here in Maine.

Today the sun came out from behind the clouds as a gentle wind blew in from the north west. Lula Belle determined these conditions were perfect for dusting the fields.

Lulla Belle calls out to her fairy companions,  “Come, sprinkle fairy dust to help encourage the blueberries to flourish and grow. ” The other fairies are feeling rather shy after spending the long cold winter in their cozy chambers. They’ve not once opened their wings to flutter or fly all winter and are feeling a bit timid and shy about doing so after all this time.

The smallest of the fairies, being the most curious sets off, following a sparkle of Lula Belle’s fairy dust which leads to a cluster of human children who’ve heard the fairies whispering and seen their twinkling lights.

The fairies chose to shape shift, increasing their size so they can play with the children while they work their magic. This is a privilege allowed to fairies on a single spring day each and every year for one a single hour.

A little girl leads the fairies to the Sacred Cairn of Rocks where another child waits.

Everywhere the fairies run is illuminated by sparkling fairy dust twinkling and bright.

Together with the children by their sides the fairies look over the magnificent countryside and honor the vast landscape which lay before them. Being fairies they find they are eager not only to run with the children but to soar across the fields and fly!

The fairies continue playing with the children as they sprinkle the blueberry fields all alight with their magical dust. When twilight sets in they will shape shift back to their original sizes, say goodbye to their human companions and fly back to their magical chambers as the children walk home.

Lula Belle will be the last of the fairy folk to leave. She is happy how everywhere she looks is now sparkled bright with fairy dust to nourish the blueberry fields all through the springtime, twinkling and shimmering each and every night.

Fairy Folk are clever and spry.

They are ageless, helpful, resourceful and can be mischievous too.

Fairy Folk have been around since the beginnings of Time.

Summer is when they reign in all their glory.

So take note some full moon summer’s eve, perhaps what you perceive as some tiny little firefly is actually a wee small fairy out dancing in the moonlight.

The Fairies hope you will come to our show at The Bangor Public Library June through July.

There will be an opening reception June 2nd 4-5 pm.

20 % of all proceeds from The Magic of Believing will go to The Bangor Public Library and 40% will go to The Landing Place Youth Center in Rockland Maine.

Have a Fairy Merry Day, hope to see you!

Early this morning I heard a soft tapping at my door, and whom should I find there greeting me? Why Tiny G, the smallest of the Home Place Fairy Folk. As is the custom each and every spring Tiny G hand delivers my invitation to The Grand Fairy Spring Ball. Fairy balls are grand occasions with much planning and preparation begun months beforehand. As Seamstress to the Fairies I am responsible for designing and stitching together a vast array of elaborate fairy wear.

Little G is responsible for delivering all the invitations to the Grand Fairy Spring Ball and she takes her mission seriously, checking her list several times over.

Afterwards I invite G into my kitchen for a sip of honey and blueberry nectar tea.

In a Garden Magic Happens each and every day.

Some things are more visible than others, and it can take a keen and discerning eye to see the smallest of the small.

The closer you look, the more you will see.

There are fairies in my gardens and I am guessing in yours too.

Sometimes we don’t always recognize the most magical beings around us, nor see them fully for who they are.

Fairies are Pranksters and love to play games, like hide and never be seen.

Take a good look around your own garden,

Be curious and venture out.

There is so much for you to see.

Magic really does happen, all one has to do is look.
