Fairy Princess Flower Crown.


We spent Saturday making 'Fairy Princess Flower Crowns' for my Etsy shop. Of course, it was K who came up with the name... T didn't much care for what we were making and preferred to splash in the little pool to keep cool... it was a very hot afternoon.

K helped by choosing the fabric of the crown and then the order of the paper roses... didn't she do a lovely job?

She did of course have a vested interest in the crowns... one was to be hers!
She was delighted to put it on as soon as it was made... then she started twirling. As luck would have it, she had on a very 'spinny' dress!
She really felt like a Fairy Princess, I could see, as she twirled around with abandon. Let me tell you, her crown only came off for the bath and bed.


And then it was on again on Sunday morning.
We all had to traipse outside again for some more spinning...

And some more...

And some more.
The little Fairy Princess is in bed now, fast asleep, exhausted from all the spinning. The Fairy King is coming home tomorrow and the whole court is so exited to see him.

Blessings and magic.

So sweet! My daughter had a dress very similar to the golden one, except with roses instead of butterflies. And of course every little girl needs a Fairy Princess Flower Crown! In our house it was standard headwear (at home and when out) for at least two years. Yours are beautiful.

Very sweet - we make maple crowns in the fall when the leaves turn a brilliant red and gold. Not sure my boys would have worn flowered crowns - but they loved being King of the Forest!

Inspired yet again by your beautiful pics. May I ask.... is that a mirrored window on your fence? It looks beautiful.

Ooh, very lovely and she is so cute. And a smart one too, very creative with the name of her invention.
