In a certain English ivy forest spring has swirled in.
And with spring comes the yearly swan parade through the fairytale land.
The elves and fairies hide amongst the green, spreading their fairy dust for all.
The swans sing the most hauntingly beautiful songs as they pass by the tiny elfin village.
The fairies twirl in delightment as sparklies fill the air.
The patisserie is open just in time as the village lights up with joy.
The swan song awakening of spring, oh my!
Please come in says little bakery girl.
There's tea and sweets galore.
It's so warm and inviting – delightful indeed.
The elves hide under ivy leaves and watch the fairy dust magic come to life.
It's a perfect time to live in a 3 story cake…
Or a pink pumpkin!
Or or, a sweet mushroom house.
And let's not forget the charming tree houseling<3
Can you hear the swan song?
It's spring.
It's time for magical things!
Like flowers and gardens and warm beautiful nights.
I'm sorry I disappeared for so many days, I was working away on these claylets.
The details are time consuming and I like to put my whole whole whole heart in.
Totally hand sculpted, painted, stained, varnished and sparkled by me.
One of the local elves 😉
All can now be found here in my online shop.
adorable! I can’t believe I let the pumpkin house get away-poof! But I did buy the tree house!
I snatched up tge last two swans! They are so beautiful!
Amazing work Vanessa! xo Jen
I’m happy you are making the clay sweeties! I missed the swans too (they are the mascots of Lakeland FL where I live!). will you make some elfins?!
I think they’ve already flown away! I’m happy for you! They are delightful…just like you! Sweet hugs, Diane
YIKES!!Where did all the clay sweeties go??I’ve missed you,girl.You’ve been MIA for a couple of weeks…I count on you for my MOJO,n believe me when I say I’ve needed some recently,in the midst of all the craziness I call my life!!Please don’t disappear on us like that!!Well,since I missed the goodies,I guess I’ll just go eat worms……Or,maybe I’ll just order a print I’ve been eyeing!!!
Egads! How does everything sell so fast?! I looked yesterday and you hadn’t posted anything new on your blog. I look this morning, quickly go to Etsy, and everything is gone. It must be fairy magic!
I’m with William! I had designs on some more weeling magic as me gift to meself this birthdaytide!
Alas, it was not meant to be – clearly Universe knew of other places sweet needed to reside — I will score a treeling for the weelings soon enough to be sure! (Avow for the owl) 🙂
Perfectly dreamy, Veevala!! This post makes me happy!
Love love love!! 🙂 xoxoxviiRoostah

Life is sooo crazy I understand. Two pieces managed to go to one place, yay! No one bought a bunch at a time, but that would have been fun. Siblings going together <3 I have parcels going to 8 different places around the world, I miss them but am sooo happy they get to venture far and wide. Glad you are well and busy Miss T xo
