Beltane/May Day Swap *TIME TO SHIP*

Gather ye fairies and bendies around the Maypole to celebrate!!

Ideas:
maypoles of course

Folklore says that if you sit beneath a tree on this night, you will see Her or hear the sound of Her horse's bells as She rides by. If you hide your face, She will pass you by but if you look at Her, She may choose you.)
fairyland play mat
fairy looking glass (I read somewhere that if you twist a sprif of rowan into a circle and look through it on Beltane Eve you may be able to see the fairies )

Crafting is my therapy too. I have been a much happier mama since I have started to work for a couple of hours a night but then craft for a couple of hours after that. Granted, this is only working now because Holden doesn't nap anymore and the kids now go to bed at 7:00

I do hope your fingers don't fall off!
