The Fairiest Nature Art You'll Ever See



Sally J. Smith makes most magical nature art. I first saw photos of her fairy houses in a calendar on my friend's kitchen wall. In her blog Sally describes how one day she had 45 minutes free time after running her errands. She decided to go out in the freezing upstate NY evening and make some art with ice,

"Sometimes you only have a few free moments... the important thing is, what are we going to do with those moments?"
Here are more pictures of her creations.

After looking at these I feel super inspired to go out to a forest or park and DO SOMETHING! Something pretty and heartfelt! And play like a kid! Don't you feel it too?!

I just got an idea, inspired by this, is that I'll take my fairies (I have a bunch of fairy friends that people commonly call "figurines") and put them in some nature spots and take pics :)

Well this is one of the ideas I had. Aahh her work, Sally Smith's, is so creative.. And so lovely.
