My four year old daughter Isabella would absolutely love a party like this! Her birthday is coming up soon in August. I do not have the money or space to create a party for her that is quite this elaborate. However, this has given me some great ideas for stuff that I can make and do to create a simple but fun fairy-themed party for her this year!

I found this Fairy Bedroom at Design Dazzle. The room is made by Kidtropolis. This fairy bedroom that is so pretty! Wouldn't your daughter love a room like this?

If I'd had a room like this as a child, my best friend and I would have spent hours upon hours pretending to be fairies. Children are capable of so much imagination even without the assistance of decorating that creates a setting. I was such a dreamer as a child, always fantasizing about far-off and magical lands. This room would have been ideal for me. And I know a couple of my daughters would think this room was a dream come true!

Good Fairy (guest post)

Today we have a guest post! "Good Fairy" is a lovely poem written by Monika Seböková (or Nikki S. for short).

You will normally find her blogging over at Husitka.
which she describes as a blog about art, music, helping others - and about her thoughts. She calls it "A piece of my soul, heart and brain on the Internet." She also can be found blogging at Husitka Notepad. she describes this blog as being about languages, translations, drawing, photographing, music, writing and her view of the world around in general. She is a language teacher with a special interest in translation. You can find her post with this beautiful fairy poem on her blog here.


"Good Fairy
Like a fairy from my childhood dreams
She came and saved me
Her long red hair and bright blue eyes
Guided me through the most troubled times
And I felt safe like I once did in my Mother's arms

She spoke to me when I needed to listen
She stayed silent when I longed for silence
Her laughter caressed my heart and brightened my days
Her tears taught me to think before I speak
And her songs of a better tomorrow carved a sign of hope into my heart"
