Here it is!!





































Okay, here she is! The “Sugar Fairy’s” Bed & Breakfast called “Lothlorie-Inn”. The purveyors of Lothlorie-Inn are Sugar Faes, and how do I know this?
True storey: I was setting up some of the stuff in their kitchen and pulling out what food I would be using for the scene, and then my entire house was permeated by the smell of baking brownies or chocolate chip cookies….I wasn’t baking anything at all though!! Yep, I had a Fae encounter, and they were quite clear about who was waiting to inhabit the house. Infact, they were super excited for me to hurry up and finish it! Needless to say this house will never belong to me but, that’s just fine by me. Always happy to oblige the Fae folk!

The Sugar Fae are also fine makers of “Fairy Berry Wine” whose berries grow wild only in certain areas of the Enchanted Forest. Sweet and intoxicating as they may be, Fairy Berries are poisonous to humans and should never be eaten by us however, the Fae Folk come from all over the world to stay at Lothlorie-Inn just to drink their fine wine and eat their yummy food.
Lothlorie-Inn was inspired by many things. “Middle Earth’s” “Lothloriein” where the Magical Elves dwell, “Rivendale” another Elf dwelling in “Middle Earth”, “A Mid Summers Night Dream” by William Shakespeare, and most of all my imagination.

The House it’s self was finished in paper clay and stucco on it’s exterior, paper clay flooring on the 1st floor, and on the floors above there are a couple of different kinds of strip wood and skinny sticks.In the garden right in front of the house are hundreds of flowers incased in a paper clay stone retaining wall.Each stone was hand made of course.
















Many more pics to come!

Spring Fling pics will be up on Monday!

Well, the house is in the completion stage and the pics will be taken this weekend.
Having trouble wit one of the chandeliers though. I might have to rip it out and re-stucco the room.
3 of the 5 lights do not work. Hopefully when I get the bulbs changed it will work.
Hugs and happy mini-ing!,

It's a sunny Fae day!



I forgot about these pics I took of some Fairies on the Unicorns back.
I love this Unicorn but, have not named her yet.
She was hand made and sculpted, and then brushed with iridescent paint.

Update on the Spring Fling...

Okay, here we go. Now, don't forget that you can guess more than once everyone!
The exterior is almost complete with the exception of the detailing which I need to save for last.
I'm making almost all of the lighting in the house, and that's getting finished up, and wired in today so that I can finish the interior. Whooo hooo!
After all of this is finished comes the landscaping and although there is much to do on that, I need to really try and focus on the structure itself.

The meaning of names is going around! lol

So I had to check it out...

You Are Powerful and Determined

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.
You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.
You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!

You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life.
You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you.
At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.
You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily.
You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind.
A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic "Type A" personality.

Update on the mysterious Spring Fling '09 house..

Okay well most of the stuctures exterior finishing is done! Whooo hooo!
Hubby cut out a lovely deck for it last night, and today I'm working on its finishings. I still have some of the interior to do and since I'm adding fiber optics to this house, I think I'm in for a challenge. I hope it all turns out as I wished it to! Lots of the what I'm working with are new mediums to me and that has been a challenge all on it's own. Well, it's good though...I probably never would have tried any of them had I not decided to turn this house into a ______ _______ ___ ______ otherwise :)
Hugs,
