Here are some pieces of ephemera from my collection for you to use in your works.

Mermaid Tea Party, Sign up Now!
Hello All,
Its here the Mermaid Tea Party, coming Saturday April 18, 2009 all day, sign up now, for a day of magic and mermaid enchantment. Come with me and have tea by the magical coral reef with mermaids of her shape, size, and style, swimming to the party from every land from all over the world.
Share stories among each other of mermaid folklore, seaside tea recipes, projects, ephemera, and some giveaways. Ask yourself, "Are you the Little Mermaid?" or "The Fiji Mermaid?" " Do you prefer Seahorses of land horses?, or both?" "Do you love salmon sandwiches or dill and cream cheese?" "Salt Water Taffy and Salt Water Pearls?"
Speaking of pearls grab a vintage pair, or two or three, and extract the power of wisdom they have ready to share with you, but you might have to get past the King of Clams to get to them. If not hang out on the pier over a creamy ice cream cone or sweet funnel cake and let the salty fresh air seep in.
Now that Spring is here, Summer will soon follow and promise us all new adventures into the seaside-scape. Beach goers, collect a shell or two to remember your day, or Sansibel natives, share your shells in a post or send some to a friend. Queens of the sea wear your seashell crown and blinging best, deep sea divers find us a treasure and Pirates, play it safe and have a soiree on a deserted Island with all your treasures and wares and please don't forget the rum, LOL for the mojitos.
Are you at the tea party soiree yet?, I am, see you on April 18...If you want to join in the fun, leave a comment here and I will sign you up for a day of fun, treasures and giveaways under the sun.

The Queen of Fairyland
Not only is The Carnival Soiree approaching in 10 days, But in April, another fabulous event is coming: Easter, a day of celebration, Religious Love, Praise and The Arrival of the Easter Bunny, who never comes to your house without an Easter Basket or Chocolate Bunny.
Last week I was at Walmart picking up some items, when I came upon the Easter section, it was like a journey into time. This year everything is 50's style, Russell Stover put out an Easter Pastel Line, the chocolate bunnies, and matching goodies can be in creamy pastel colors of Baby Blue, Pink, Hot Pink, Orange, Lilac, Pale Green, and Yellow. Their are peeps in the same colors, edible grass from Germany, candied eggs, cutesy stuffed animals, and sweet baskets, its just Easter Wonderland, and best part, its reasonable and at Walmart.
When I was young their used to be a few stores open by me, Newbury's and Woolworth's which my mom used to frequent and buy my holiday goodies at, when I saw this aisle I remember those times. Not sure if the Walmart by you will have these goodies, but the ones by me do.
As a tribute to our vintage holiday past, I created this piece in what I call The Cupcake Chic Color Scheme and Style, a vintage vignette made in a large Pink Egg with removable cover, normally used to hold candies or surprises in, I call this piece: The Queen of Fairyland, read her story:
Meet Candie Meadows, The Queen of Fairyland! Here is Queen Candie, welcoming Spring and Easter in her blooming egg garden, just outside her palace in Cottonwood.
Today she will hold the annual Easter Bunny Ceremony where she bestows Mr. Bunny with extra magic, which last all season, this will enable him to surprise children everywhere (Adults too), with Easter Candies and Baskets.
Plus today will mark the official day of candy making, Cottonwood Confectionaires and Percy Pookerman's Candy factories will be extra busy, making sure there is enough confections to go around.
