I’ve been going to my county court house all week because I’m serving jury duty

I’m also reading a book about faries and fairy doors and traveling to fairy realms

Today while leaving court I spotted this behind the parking lot near where I was parked, even though I’ve parked in the same spot for three days today is the first day I saw it

I think tomorrow I’m gonna go through and eat my lunch and finish my book sitting in there

Assuming it’s still there

Fairy Doors of Ann Arbor

Ann Arbor's fairy doors are a charming and whimsical feature that draws in both locals and tourists. When these small, finely carved doors started to show up in different parts of Ann Arbor in 2005, people were intrigued and delighted to find them. Jonathan B. Wright, an artist, created these little portals as toys for his kids. However, they swiftly became a well-liked urban mystery and cultural phenomenon. Every door is distinct and painstakingly made to fit in with its surroundings. They are located in local businesses' walls, beneath trees, and even in theaters and libraries. By suggesting that fairies might genuinely reside in these areas, the doors aim to evoke a sense of magic and wonder. Little staircases or windows frequently accompany them. These doors provide an opportunity for people of all ages to interact imaginatively and playfully with their surroundings, which promotes storytelling and discovery.

The fairy doors have an effect that goes beyond mere entertainment. They have made Ann Arborites feel more connected to one another and to the community as a whole. Families and friends who participate in fairy door hunts post their discoveries on social media and in local communities. In addition to strengthening ties throughout the community, this shared experience offers visitors and residents alike a distinctive way to see the city. Furthermore, companies close to the fairy doors frequently witness an increase in foot traffic as interested parties stop by to find out more information or to note the little doors. Additionally, the fairy doors encourage artistic expression and creativity. Local artists and craftspeople have enhanced the city's artistic landscape with their brilliant creations. Community organizations and schools utilize the fairy doors to foster children's imagination and creativity through educational activities. Interacting with these tiny pieces of art encourages people to observe their surroundings differently and discover beauty and possibilities in commonplace locations. Essentially, Ann Arbor's Fairy Doors are a monument to the creative spirit and the excitement of exploration. They serve as a reminder that magic and whimsy may exist in even the busiest of cities. The doors ask us to take a moment to relax, take in our surroundings, and be grateful for the little mysteries that might make our lives more meaningful. Encapsulating a blend of ingenuity, community spirit, and playful curiosity, they continue to enchant everyone who encounters them, making them a symbol of Ann Arbor's distinct character.

It is the middle of a Sunday afternoon. You have nothing on, and aren't expecting visitors, deliveries or post.

Unexpectedly, there is a knock at the door.

you are greeted by...... her

[podcastwizard]

because here's the thing here's the thing the question was not "would you be more surprised to run into a fairy or a walrus" the question was "would you be more surprised to find a fairy or a walrus AT YOUR DOOR" and while no, i do not believe in fairies and would be surprised to know they EXIST i would NOT be surprised to find one at my door. HOWEVER, if a WALRUS shows up at my door i have to contend with the fact that a walrus somehow made it to my apartment specifically and knocked on my door for god knows what reason. i would be more surprised to know that a fairy EXISTS, of course, but NOT that they're at my door, do you get me?

but how did the walrus knock

Forest Fairies - #ThursdayDoors

Every time I walk this path, I feel a bit childlike. I keep my eyes peeled and I listen hard... well, you just never know! #ThursdayDoors #FairyDoors #ForestWalks

A colourful collection of doors today from Belleek Forest here in Ballina, Co Mayo. These wonderful little fairy doors were first made a few years ago by the members of The Men’s Shed, and I see that they’ve repaired some that had gotten weather beaten, and they’ve also added some new ones. The fairy doors are a popular attraction in the forest for people of all ages. Every time I walk this…

Did Peri tell Timmy that he was planning to become a Fairy Godparent/that he was assigned a godkid? When we first see the fam reunite in the series, Cosmo and Wanda didn't seem to know.

Timmy had known Peri might pursue becoming a godparent, because Peri had consulted with him about career tracks!! And like. Being the only one invited to Peri's college graduation tends to give Timmy more insight than his parents. Special older brother privileges.

As for being assigned a Godkid, Timmy sorta... Stumbled into it. He found out long before Peri was told he had been given an assignment!

Introduction

Hello! My name is Rosette, but I go by Rosie. My pronouns are she/her and l am a femme lesbian. At work I go by Sparkles Evergreen and according to the Fairy Name Generator in The Girls’ Book of Flower Fairies inspired by the world of Cicely Mary Barker my Fairy name is Strawberry Silver-Wand. I am an educator and a self-published author and poet. I want to use this platform to share my new work Eleusinianland as it evolves piece by piece and engage with my readers as we build this world together through asks, feedback, headcanons, and any fan works.

Eleusinianland is a story exploring identity, sisterhood/motherhood, psychosomaticism, spirituality, the occult, epilepsy, delusions, mythology, agoraphobia, maladaptive daydreaming, the uncanny, and the intricate world of the Fae.

The story is set throughout the labyrinth of "fairy doors" located in Ann Arbor Michigan, as well as the vast Faerie realm Ephaestron. Sisters Rubina and Kalina must navigate the metaphysical juxtaposed to the stark reality of their non-traditional childhood with the guidance of Lilac, a fairy doll rescued by a young Rubina who enlightens the girls to another world full of whimsy and imagination. When their two worlds begin to bleed together, Ruby and Kalina must come to understand themselves and each other in order to overcome a dark force and preserve the kingdom of Ephaestron and their very personhood as it unravels.

I will hopefully be cross-posting full chapters on AO3 as well as here. In addition, on this blog I hope to share art, character profiles, poetry, playlists, mood boards, edits, headcanons, photography, fanart, asks, etc.

Dear reader, l invite you to indulge and engage in this magical journey alongside me. Let us fall into a world that is wholly ours and adapts to the depths of our imagination. My ask box is ALWAYS open. Happy reading!
