Story of Stuff

The Story of Stuff is a very eye-opening video about the life cycle through which products travel. I originally saw it in 2012 in my General Arts program, however I saw it again today and thought that more people need to give it a go so here we are, sharing the love! It's a little hokey but I'm sure we can look past it's, err, charm, to enjoy the facts! I think this is a great video to be watching before Earth Day, which is April 22nd!

I should be paid for this, but I'm getting marks instead. Close enough~

Just thought I'd share!

Pinterest & Twitter, Oh My!

I've set up a Pinterest account to supplement my postings here on Feeling Faerie Fabulous. It can be found here ! Further, I've also set up a Twitter which can be found here!

I intend on doing photo or video demos for some of the Pins I'm most excited about. I'm really looking forward to it~

Until next time, enjoy this gorgeous rooster~

Come hither, Spring

After yesterday's rain, the snow has nearly disappeared. As much as I love snow, I'm ready to get out of the Winter funk and move onto the freshness of Spring~ Today is definitely that: fresh. That's inspiring for me.

My cat, Luna, was even feeling mildly photogenic, which is a rarity. That goes for me, too. It's definitely been awhile since I've had gotten nice pictures of myself. Here's hoping that changes, 'cause overall, it's an enjoyable experience.

As you can see, I'm donning a faded floral print dress, knit top (it has wee bell sleeves -- very cute), some knee high socks 'cause it's still a bit chilly, and my motorcycle boots. I like those boots, I've had them a couple years, but I really dislike that they've got leather. These will be the last pair of real leather boots I own, since I pursue a vegan diet, and would like to further my efforts to get away from animal products, especially fur and leather. I don't own any fur (unless you consider my wool scarf to be fur??), but I've got a couple leather products. My Rudsak winter coat (not pictured here) has some leather trimmings and such. I adore that coat and I'm not ready to part with it, but when the time comes, I'll be looking into some alternative options for quality Winter gear. As a Canadian, it's a must to have a good coat and pair of boots.

Further, I've got a pretty bare face (apart from some mascara and lip balm). I need to work on being comfortable in my own skin, so here we are.

This afternoon I'm going to be hitting the thrift store, on a bit of a treasure hunt. What a charming way to spend the rest of the day~ Who knows what trouble I'll get into this evening, though.

Until later,

& so we begin..

From here on in, this corner of the internet is reserved for the most magical of creatures.
I think you're one of them.
We're going to explore wonderful things together, I promise it'll be fun.
So prepare for something different, something bold, brave, and beautiful, and maybe a little bit above and beyond. Just a little.

So, Darlings, grab your teapot, put some flowers in your hair, and prepare... to transform into a fairy, or any other creature. Or do whatever it is you dare.

You are a wonderful thing, and you will say it!
