Halloween Angel -Guest Heart Thursday



This lovely Halloween angel brings a bit of luck to October's fun.  I loved her wings.  It was easy to do a tiny bit of manipulation to bring out the hearts.  

I hope you have a GREAT day!

Halloween Fairies - Postcard Friendship Friday #137



Isn't this unusual vintage postcard just darling?  I have never found a Halloween Faery before!  It is the only one I could find. 

Actually, from what I could find online, Halloween Fairies are a fairly new tradition and a charming idea.

Some say the Halloween Fairy is not a faery at all.  It is said she might be a Banshee with a sweet tooth.  When the wind blows and taps at the windowpane, it is the Halloween Fairy who would love to share a few goodies.  Just like the Tooth  Fairy, the Halloween Fairy leaves a present behind in exchange for a fistful of Halloween treats.

The kids awaken to play with their present and there's less candy around for them to consume.  I really love this idea--I wish it had been around when my kids were small!

Have a lovely weekend, everyone!

Halloween Time - Postcard Friendship Friday #83


Forgive me for getting PFF up so late today.  I have been feeling a bit under the weather.  

I love this whimsical postcard--the poetry and artwork is just delightful!  

I have always loved fairytales and fairies--however, in my research I discovered a scary tradition about fairies and goblins on  Hallows Eve!  It is whispered that in the hours between dusk and midnight, fairies and goblins go out to collect as many souls as they can.  

To rescue an imprisoned soul, a person could collect the dust from beneath the feet of fairies and goblins, then throw it at these creatures--who would then would be obliged to release all the souls they held captive.  Have you ever wondered what fairy dust was made of?  Me too!  Now  we know!
