My sister the Fairy

                                         Mushrooms (and a garden hose but I cropped that out)

Kelsey sitting on a butterfly stool. 
( I SO wanted one of these until I saw the $4,000 price tag- OUCH!) 
                                                 
Finished Photo 

This is a photo I did for the fair (I didn't win anything ... I think maybe it was a bit too much for the sweet little old ladies who judge to handle). I took two photos I had snapped at Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron -go there if you haven't already, it's a beautiful gem in a less than impressive city. Lots of photo shopping and two merged snapshots later and my sister Kelsey became a sparkly fairy.

Bric A Brac

Not much of a post, but I just realized that the definition for Bric a Brac (1830-1840) is not much older than my house (1850). So weird to think about how much things have changed. Wish my house's walls could speak ... the stories they could tell!
