It is maybe a time of Illumination, a time of Celebration and the Fairies have advised me to prepare for this event, with songs and dance, and special food. But no Midsummer would be much of anything at all without a diadem, a mossy Crown to wear upon the brow of the one who Dances in the Sunlight.
This tiny Fairie Diadem is an example of that very thing. It is made of wire, woven with fibers, moss threads and set with beads. Here it is pinned to a vintage crochet pin cushion, which is HOw it will arrive for your Celebration.
The crown itself measures 2 inches wide by 2.7 inches tall.
The pin cushion is 3.4 inches wide.

My Robin, it is the most wonderful fairy crown I have ever seen- I love the mossy style, and the beauty you prepared for the midsummer day----it is so tiny and gorgeous,dear. Here we celebrate the day 23/6 with feasts and fires burning the witches-( old mittelage ) . I`m alwayes told I was lucky to have birthday the 24/6 as I would else have flown awaY on the broom with the other witches,LOL
