It reminded me of my uncle, who did many, many miniatures through his life and I remember watching him meticulously place each item. His projects included an entire American Indian Village on an 8' X 4' sheet of plywood, made entirely of a variety of nutshells, small grasses, twigs and small pieces of fabrics for Teepees, which he painted by hand and many other small items nature provided, pebbles, etc. It was incredible, taking him over four years to complete. You see, he had Rheumatoid Arthritis in is worst form. By the time I was six years old, him fifty, his hands were not recognizable as hands. They were bent all the way back, laying against the outside of his forearms. His feet would have been the same if not for special shoes to keep the bones from turning too badly. The shoes caused him a great deal of pain, but he refused, to the day he dies at seventy years old, to live in a wheelchair. It was in the last four years of his life that he created his Indian Village. He was study in strength and character. Though nothing can compare with his work for me, due to the struggles I watched him endure without a single complaint, and the patience he exercised in making his miniatures with his arthritic fingers, the Fairy Garden you shared with us today will stand out in my mind for a long, long time. Thanks so much for sharing all the beauty you found today. Big Hugs and as always, keeping you ever in my prayers...Stitched With Prayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223099347614174169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-83390707125647317962013-06-02T08:53:43.723+10:002013-06-02T08:53:43.723+10:00thanks for these lovelies.... now to add them to m...thanks for these lovelies.... now to add them to my too long todo list!!! haha<br />HugzFionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497477051026460440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-91992600609494679092013-06-02T02:57:17.710+10:002013-06-02T02:57:17.710+10:00OH now I'm distracted!
