Fae on Friday – Pixies

Pixie Led

 Children born of fairy stock
Never need for shirt or frock,
Never want for food or fire,
Always get their hearts desire:
Jingle pockets full of gold,
Marry when they're seven years old.

Every fairy child may keep
Two ponies and ten sheep;
All have houses, each his own,
Built of brick or granite stone;
They live on cherries, they run wild--
I'd love to be a Fairy's child.

-Robert Graves

Goode Reader, take upon thyself  great silliness! - Me

Pixies want you to play.  Lighten up a little, laugh a lot.  (Yes,  I made the above thumb pixie.  I did it in a public park.  Can you see the scotch tape?)

Scent can be an inspiration on your quest for fun.  Go and be in the fresh air, revel in the scent.  Maybe you’ll roll down a grassy hill smelling of dirt and green.  Or enjoy the scent of something sweet and playful like fruity gummies (natural please). 

Natural Perfumes that may inspire the pixie in you include Aftelier new scent, Bergamoss.  A new Chypre on my wish list.  A perfume both forest-y and uplifting.  

Also recommended is Terrain from Velvet and Sweet Pea Perfumery.

Happy Fae Day!  Tell me, dear reader, how silly can you get?
