Days like these make everyday worth it…
We were headed to the Renaissance Faire this weekend – and when LittleMiss asked it was, I described it as a place to see people dressed up and watch how things were done a long, long time ago. She asked if they were wearing costumes, and if she’d see any fairies. The past few times we’d been to a RenFaire, the fairies were out in abundance, so I answered that we might be able to find some. She immediately decided that she wanted to dress as a “Flower Princess Fairy” so she’d be able to find all of her fairy friends.
Of course, I happily complied! I just added a big flower to her existing flowers and ribbons headband from the faire last year. The wings were Tinkerbell wings from DisneyStore. I made the tutu for her at Christmastime. I raided my ribbon drawer and a silk flower arrangement and threw together a quick “Flower Wand”
She looked super adorable. I just wish I could have convinced her to wear a different shirt.
She got lots of “awwwws” and the few fellow fairies we came across at the Faire all stopped and bowed to her. She didn’t get it, but it was fun for us! Lots of people took her picture as she pranced and twirled around the grounds.
