Where Did Flower Fairies Come From?
These particular fairies are small, even by fairy standards, stand between 4 inches and 6 inches. Flower Fairies are the invention of Author and Artist, Cicely Mary Baker who lived in 1895-1973. When Cicely was a child, living close to London, she was unable to attend school because of her epilepsy so she was taught at home. Often alone, she began to draw and used the children in the kindergarten or her sister ran as her models. More interesting articles at Writer’s Resources categories.
