HELP ME DECIDE ON MY NEXT DZFANTASY GIVEAWAY!

I'm looking for help.....and suggestions as to what you, the readers of my DZFANTASY blog, would like to see for my next giveaway!


I've been having monthly "giveaways" for over a year now, there have been giveaways for mermaids, fairies, fairy face pins, butterfly pins, butterflies....WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE FOR THE NEXT DZFANTASY GIVEAWAY! Help me decide.

I'm considering having a "WINNER"S CHOICE" giveaway, where the winner would be able to select any one item in my shop with a value of $50.00 or less. That could mean the winner would have an opportunity to choose a tiny fairy, mermaid, fairy face pin, and more! Any comments on this idea?? Let me know!

Hope you will take time to comment here with some suggestions, as to what everyone would like to see next. You can also visit my DZFANTASY shop by clicking on the "pink fairy" photo below to get a better idea of what is available.

Hope to hear from everyone! THANKS!


I will also be hosting several great "giveaways" from other Etsy artists starting in September.

If there are any Etsy shop owners that would like to have me "host" a giveaway for them, please contact me either via a convo through my DZFANTASY shop, or at this email: dzfairies@msn.com

HOW SMALL CAN I GO? MY NEW SMALL FAIRIES!





I just finished this "wee" fairy, and have decided she is absolutely the smallest fairy I can create! She is the second tiny fairy I have created since I scaled down my design of what I already thought was the tinest figure I could create and still be able to get a good face.






This may not seem small to those artists who create their tiny fantasy fairies out of clays, but when working with fabric, it is quite tiny. Her face measures .50" wide x .75" long. I've found it actually takes me longer to create a tiny fairy such as this than when working with a larger size figure.


Since I love a challenge, I will be creating several more in this size! To learn more about her, click on any of her photos.


The photo below shows the very first of my teeny, tiny fairies, and her face was even a bit smaller, which was almost impossible to do. It measured a little less than .50" wide and a tad more than .50" high. After attempting that size, I increased the face a wee bit.


2.75" high from her "seat" to the top of her head.



Here she is sitting with several of my other size fairies. The Fairy Bride on the left is my middle size fairy and measures approximately 4.5" high from her seat to the top of her head. The little yellow sitting fairy is what used to be my smallest fairy.
