Everything Under the Moon

I've only done this once or twice and goddess it's been years, but BOY was it fun! I've been meaning to do it again and so I've been thinking about this a lot.

These are some of the faerie clothes I made with a friend over a decade ago.



As you can see, if you take care of them, they keep very well. Or, you can always leave them out as a gift for the fae!

All you need to do this is
-a collection of leaves and flowers you have gathered, of various shapes and sizes
-scissors
-a needle
-thread (I prefer green)

You can form the leaves and flower parts as they are into shapes of clothes, or you can cut clothing shapes out of bigger leaves. I made a dress like that with a lavender collar, but unfortunately do not have pictures.

If any of you try this, I would LOVE to see what you come up with, so please reply here with pictures!
I hope this can inspire some of you.

Also, for some faerie clothes by artists who are much better at it than I am, check out the book Fairie-ality, here: http://www.fairie-ality.com/fairie1/info.asp I happened upon it a few years ago and it's absolutely stunning, although there's no way I could ever match up to the artist's level of skill.

Oh. My. Gosh. Those are so adorable! I did the same thing, a long time ago, but they were just for paper dolls.

Thanks, I'm glad you like them!

I would love to make faerie clothes with the rue and wormwood in my garden. Wonderful inspiration, thank you!
