Tarry-A-Bit Fairies

Tarry-A-Bit Fairies, a whimsical mixed media shadowbox by Sherry Candy Lane. The idea originated with the found box & with the secret life I know Fairies have. Here is the inside, left side view of some illusive captured winged creatures. They continue to thrive, even though under scrutiny.
The key is close at hand--they can come and go as they please since they know the secret password.

A 1980's fairy card has been saved all these years and now has its purpose. Under glass & bordered with tiny beads & sparkly whatnots. The girl blows the magic wand & billows delightful fairyfolk dance in the night air. One blue such has been hooked for a bit to spend some time in the box.

Inside, left side, full view...frivolous, dancing, singing, making music, writing poetry, playing games, carefree, & seriously nonsensical fairies Tarry-A-Bit.
Laminated paper illustration displayed inside. One iridescent fairy bathes under a bright red flower shower of sweet nectar.



Measures 8" wide x 9 3/4" high.
