Flower Fairies

For all my other mother of fairy/princess loving daughters out there...here is a craft idea I snagged from Family Fun magazine. Ella (and me, ha) had so much fun with it that I just had to pass it along.

2. Draw a stick figure outline on paper.
3. Use your nature collections to design a fairy and her outfit.

Simple and free. Two of my favorite words.

Feel free to pass along any of your simple and free craft ideas!
