Delicate entities with butterfly wings and sparkly antennae in silver or gold: charm away the idea that fairies exist only in the imagination by fashioning an entire otherworld of fantastic beings. Surprisingly, all this magic emerges from the most ordinary, everyday materials--often recycled sweaters and pom-poms--woven and sculpted using the simplest of techniques. 30 delightful characters include a bevy of charming fairies (Acorn, Berry, Dragonfly, Daisea, Florabea, Lily, Matte Moth, and Rose), plus other endearing creatures like Honey Bea, Grass Hopper, Pink Worm, Baby Bird, Blackbird, and Owl. Give them costumes and accessories, homes and special hideaways, miniature furniture, and the flower and other natural objects these fairies and their friends love so much. They'll reawaken your imagination!
