....."the butterfly maidens watch
over the chrysalids as they play
and tell them about the plants
and pretty, brightly-coloured flowers.
How wonderful they smell!"....
Sybille von Olfers - The Story of the Butterfly Children
This lovely story was my inspiration for the swap M. Bloom of we bloom here recently hosted. So here is what was inside those little white parcels.....
Hopefully they have all be received and I don't spoil the surprise for anyone!

ReplyDeleteSo seriously, I was looking through the peg people gallery and saw these. I, of course, drooled and wished that I could have one. Then I came here to comment on how cute they were and noticed that momma rae, one of my swap partners, had commented.
ReplyDeleteAnd then I grew a brain and realized that one of these sweet sets is winging its way to me!! I shall be stalking the mailbox now. ;)
