*Queen Winter* Found Love!

Queen Winter was wandering in the snowy woods when she came across a wonderous sight...


King Winter!


* It was love at first sight *


Their love expanded and burst forth as...


Babe Winter


Now the clan of winters is off in the snowy woodland in search of magical adventures...


*** 
Such fun! My girls love playing with the winter family ~ I'm not sure who loves it more though (them or me ; ) I always seem to get swept away with my fae creations as they come alive beneath my fingers!

~ To make these ~ 
Queen Winter instructions are here.
King Winter is basically the same except I cut him out a felt hooded cape and added some other embellishments.
Babe Winter is a pipe cleaner piece glued to a small acorn and then wrapped tightly with white roving.  Her sleigh is a milkweed pod stuffed with lots of milkweed fluff for cozy warmth.

From the clan of Winters and myself 
wishing you endless wonder.

    Just Divine!
    I am feeling mighty inspired, and may attempt the Winter Family for our seasonal table this week.

    Wabi -Sabi I think perhaps a Queen Winter is heading to your home soon...
    Perhaps you can create a King Winter and babe to keep her company.

    Homestead girl...yes I do agree his regal handsomeness has me a little love struck ; )
