Fairy Calendar~Show and Tell Friday
Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
Thank you so much for the birthday wishes for Benjamin! We had a fun day and I'll share pictures next week. For Show and Tell, I'm sharing a "Fairy Days" calendar that my sister-in-law made me a few years ago.
Even though it is out of date, I still keep it displayed in my kitchen.
Take a look at all the wonderful details...
January/February
March/April
May/June
July/August
September/October
November/December
What was your favorite page? It's so hard to pick just one!
Thank you for taking a look and Happy Valentine's Day!

Very Cute! I love the September/October page.. Fall is my favorite season.. very creative using the leaves to make the dress.

My, they are all so pretty. I guess if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the November/December one, closely followed by the March/April. You are so lucky to have such a talented sil!

That calendar is too cute! The diva in me picked the Nov/Dec fairy for my favorite! Had to go with the glitter! Something that cute has to be prominently displayed no matter how out-of-date it is! Luv it!
