The Flowers and Fairies of Cicely Mary Barker



Cicely Mary Barker was born in England on June 28, 1895 and is best known for her series of flower and fairy art, based on the seasons of the year.  

This fairy is part of her winter collection and is called "The Christmas Tree Fairy".  She is mounted on a piece of companion fabric that is a snapshot of a decorated Christmas tree.  She was a gift to my friend, and is decorated with 6ss Swarovski crystals.  She is not part of any of the galleries.

I still have about two  dozen of the individual fairies in my stash, and I have yet to decide how to use the rest of them.  If you are interested in fairies, I encourage you to visit her web site at www.flowerfairies.com
