Microwave Puff Paint Fairy
Day 329 – Microwave Puff Paint Fairy
I started by making microwave puff paint in four colours and putting into three . I drew the wings before adding the dress, skin and hair.
I “cooked” this in the microwave for 30 seconds and it puffed up!
Watercolour Pencil Fairy
Day 325 – Watercolour Pencil Fairy
Using a newly re-discovered material of watercolour pencils, I couldn’t resist playing around and sketching today’s fairy before using a wet paintbrush to blend the colours.

Day 310 – Handprint Fairy
For today’s fairy, I put watercolour paint onto my hands and printed them onto white paper. When the paint was dry, I cut around the shapes and stuck them together.

Mosaic Fairy
Day 301 – Mosaic Fairy
Today’s fairy has been created using small plastic mosaic tiles. I stuck some double sided sticky tape on the base of a wooden tray and followed the pattern to create the fairy first. I decided to mix the various colours for the background, adding a border and buttons at the top of the tray to add a bit of interest.

Finger Puppet Fairy
Day 191 – Finger Puppet Fairy
I created today’s fairy using some scraps of felt and silver material that I had saved from past projects “just in case” I ever had an idea that could use them up – today is that day!
I used complimentary coloured thread to sew the details using back stitch, black seed beads for her eyes and I have sewn around the edges with a simple running stitch. I couldn’t resist using silver for her wings!

Knotted Fairy
Day 117 – Knotted Fairy
I used some peach and purple nylon thread and knotted them using cobra knots for the head and body. I kept the knots loose for the wings and secured them underneath with additional cobra knots.
I secured the ends by holding a lit match at the ends to melt the nylon so they don’t fray.
Ombre Numbers Fairy
Day 114 – Ombre Numbers Fairy
Today’s flying friend is a special request from my nephew. He asked that I do “the outline of a fairy in numbers (not numbers in the middle of a fairy shape)”.
Hopefully I have done justice to his request. I drew the outline in pencil, used some rubber number stamps that I had and my rainbow coloured inks to add a bit more colour. I used all the numbers in the varying colours and aimed for an ombre effect.
