PISCES...MARCH'S CHILD - Aquamarine Birthstone Fairy

PISCES - AQUAMARINE BIRTHSTONE

FAIRY

by DZFANTASY



Each month I will be creating a "Birthstone" fairy for that particular month. Above is my PISCES FAIRY, for which I used the Modern Birthstone list of colors. The Modern Birthstone list is the official birthstone list from the American National Association of Jewelers of America. The colors in this list were officially adopted in 1912.

I discovered that there are other colors/stones associated with each birth month.....Mystical Birthstones are of Tibetan origin and date back over a thousand years. Then there is the Ayurvedic Birthstone list, which is from Indian medicine and beliefs dating back to ancient India (1500 BC).



I used over 30+ Aquamarine Swarovski crystals to represent March's birthstone, and used the aquamarine color scheme throughout the whole fairy....fabric, hair, and accents. She is quite a refreshing sight! If you'd like to learn more about her, just click on her photos. She is curently listed in my DZFANTASY shop on Etsy. If anyone is interested in have a "special" Birthstone Fairy created, I will be happy to work with them, as far as style, size, colors, price range.

A "WHIMSICAL KNITTING" FAIRY!

WHIMSICAL "KNITTING" FAIRY
my newest creation


I've beeen working on this delightful knitting fairy for the last several days before I finally finished her today!! You wouldn't believe how long it took me to knit the start of the teeny, tiny scarf using the pair of needles I made for her. Did you ever try to knit with tiny toothpick needles!! I must say...it was quite a challenge!


I also made her the tiny knitting bag with the Swarovski crystal handle, so she could put her balls of yarn in there for safe keeping as she knits. The bag is fabric, which I then hand-painted a sparkling lavender color, and added the Swarovski crystal handle. A very magical bag, perfect for a fairy knitter!



Her bag can be displayed as show in the above photo, or you can set it up on the box next to the fairy!

The fairy comes sitting on the wooden, hand-painted "keepsake" box, and the box's handle supports the fairy sitting on the box. The fairy is NOT attached to the box, but needs to be displayed sitting on the box.


The box makes a wonderful little "keepsake" box, where you can store your treasures with the fairy as guardian! Below is a photo of the inside of the box. I created a tiny cushion for the inside of the box, using the same fabric as the fairy's body/wings.


She was such fun to design and create, and she is hoping she will find a good home in which to spread her fairy magic.

She is currently available in my DZFANTASY shop on Etsy
