… was the title of the garden and plants fair I went to with Teli yesterday. It was set up in the castle’s park between old trees and even older walls, a very nice scenery for such an event. Teli came to pick me up an hour past high noon and we made our way [...]

Best and dearest flower that grows, Perfect both to see and smell; Words can never, never tell Half the beauty of the Rose – Buds that open to disclose Fold on fold of purest white, Lovely pink, or red that glows Deep, sweet-scented; What delight To be fairy of the Rose! Yes, I’ve learned another [...]
Treasure Chest
Posted in Arts & Crafts, Fairly Scary Fairy Godmother, Sally Gardens, tagged birthday, crafts, felt, flowers, garden, Jules on May 26, 2010 | 4 Comments »
I promised to show you Jules’ present today and so I will do. I had pondered over it a while and finally came up with an idea suiting a treasure hunt: a chest! And as Jules is complaining about the lack of good male hand bags most of the time I decided to sew one, [...]
Of Plants and Martial Arts

Judo uniforms are really difficult to darn. The story is that Kajal (one of Bambi’s rabbits, just for the case I did not mention her before) nibbled on his jacket, an action that ended with a quite big hole right between the scapulae. I offered him to mend it and so I spent a good [...]
Book Plates and Hats
Posted in Arts & Crafts, Everyday Fairytale, Sally Gardens, Wildrose Lolita, tagged books, craft, hat on April 11, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Yes, very inspired and original, this title. ^^ It is Sunday forenoon, the sky is overcast with a shimmering cover of clouds and my right hand and especially the wrist hurts with every move. It seems that I overcharged it in the garden yesterday, the ache in the hand itself seems more like a muscle [...]
The First Sprouts

The sugar peas on the window sill are doing quite good as you may see from the title. I’ll plant them into earth this week as I’m going to visit my family during the Easter holidays and therefore am not able to water the cotton. Putting them into the tub with wet newspaper wouldn’t work [...]
It’s raining today

Originally I wanted to go to the garden to free it from the weeds after I successfully reached independence from all the ivy. :) But now I only went to the library to get some more copies for my paper (somehow two pages lacked in my collection) and returned to my beloved home with a [...]
A Fan and a Book
Posted in Clockwork Girl, Sally Gardens, tagged crafts, fan, garden, university on March 25, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Today I was quite busy getting my request for a second student ID (as I managed to lose the one for next semester somehow) ready and delivering the parcel for the hats-and-headdresses swap to the post office. I’m pretty pleased how the gift turned out this time, and I hope that the girl I made [...]
The Ivy Fairy

The day before yesterday, when I was in the garden with Simon and the Imp, we kidded around with one of the ivy wreaths and this Historian, Simon’s flat mate, took pictures with this result: It was already pretty dark in the staircase at this time, so the photo has been shot without flash and [...]
My Secret Garden

Yesterday I got a carrier pigeon from Simon the Kobold with the question if I were familiar with plants. I told him, yes I were. Now I’ve got a garden. My own! Small, but precious. It’s right upon the old city walls. The boys let me care for it as they are not very interested [...]
