White Wednesday Assemblage Art Project

Sometimes you have to stretch your creative abilities a bit! Of course, posting them on your blog and sharing with the world wide web is a whole different thing! Gulp...Recently, I've been using all my junk and bits and pieces to make collage and assemblage projects.  The inspiration for this assemblage project was a photograph of this adorable little girl's face. I created the rest of her with spare parts. For example, her dress is a broken china plate and her wings a rusty vintage drawer pull. Her chubby cheeks and huge eyes reminded me so much of my daughter, who is growing by leaps and bounds every day.

As the piece came together, it reminded me so much of a little fairy.  My daughter still has a fairy door in her room and was a fairy expert just a year or so ago. She studied books on fairies for countless numbers of hours. She knew what kinds of fairies there were in the world, where they lived, and what attracted them...something shiny or something sweet. She knew how to draw them near to her.

This sweet little project will be a constant reminder to me of the special time in my young daughter's life when she "believed." 

I'm going to link up this little project to White Wednesday over at Faded Charm Cottage. I have also linked to Vintage Inspiration Friday at Common Ground.  If you are looking for great decorating and project ideas..come visit us there! I am also linking to Three Muses Challenge "Things with Wings".  Thanks for stopping by during your busy day! I love your comments and appreciate your follows.  I'll be sharing some vintage Christmas projects later this week. Hope to see you again soon.
