the purpose of my blog is to document and share images, questions, ideas, information, discoveries, excitement and events as i journey from dream to reality with my tiny house theater

i’m developing some new storytelling performances— they are based around a costume and a theme, and one of them is woodland magic
i’ve had the idea for years to take this brown velvet vest i have and turn it into a fern filled storyscape, and now it’s finally happening
i have just finished all the plant life and now i’m starting with the birds, animals, reptiles, insects and forest fairies who will fly, crawl and play among the green, growing ferns and flowers
i have a lovely floral cotton lawn dress i’m making to wear with it and i’m going to have a felt flower crown
then i can collect stories, songs, rhymes, poems and anything else that comes along on the theme and mix it up into an hourish long event for families
i have another dress— my lucky penny dress— that is almost ready for a luck, love and wishes theme :)
i can’t wait till i can travel to festivals and art faires and share my stories!
this scene definitely reminds me of the woods in pennsylvania where i spent my early grades years
