This week I am starting to create needle-felted fairy dolls using my hand-dyed wool and felt. My first doll is devoted to the rose. While creating her, I travelled back in my imagination to Cusco, where I learnt first about the medicine of the flower, infused with the kindness of others.

The magic of roses: A modern fairytale from the Australian bush

Over the past week and a half, I have been constructing a rustic-style mini bakery from recycled cardboard, paper, air-dry clay and other more natural materials. This project was inspired by old traditions and customs from my ancestral homeland, the UK, where people left food out for the fairies. I share vignettes from my creative process in this video. Since this is only the second building I have made this way, the process took not longer than I expected and was challenging. In the end, I love the building, with all its imperfections. What ancient customs and traditions do you have to pay your respects to Nature? I'd love you to share with me.

This week I have been inspired to dye alpaca fleece using materials I have at home and in the garden. This idea was inspired by Christine Schafer’s beautiful book, ‘Magic Wool. Mermaids and Fairies.’ The book is published by Floris Publishing and is available from the Book Depository: https://tidd.ly/35PPWpe My nephew's mini lion was inspired by Mini Menagerie by Lynn Allingham. You can learn more about the book in my blog. I learned to clean the fleece by watching acreswildalpacas ' videos. Their channel is at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFdqwlTMuHJNggYLWUrBZDw The Inkan festival and ceremony I refer to in the video is described in the following ethnohistorical source: In English.
