Wendy's Adventures in Wonderland

A Very Mad Tea Party on The Other Side of Wonderland...

Late oh my, as usual am I 

Are you no way as long as you are here today

 

The hands keep spinning but they go the right way. 

Or is it the wrong way. Or is there a right or wrong way

If they continue to spin then the time will be the perfect time you are supposed to arrive anyways

And of course it is for A Tea Party of the Maddest sort

 

Welcome to the Other side of Wonderland

I am Wenifred Delaney Nicholsby

Shall we go together....Try not to ..ooops

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

and WEEEEEE

well you could yell whatever you like for the next few minutes 

We shall be falling for awhile

 Ughhhh.

Well one should always land with a good thump

No lets unstraighten ourselves out,

Oh how lovely my new shoes look for this wonderous occasion

Lets see. Hum. Where did I put that key.

Oh there you are. Well now I have to find the Door

Here we go

Just a few more little clicks and we will...There it is.

Kind of a tight squeeze but just think small

Ooohhhh We made it.

Lets put this away for later

I think we can see something over that way

Oh yes I believe I see the hats now

and some lovely little tea cups

One here one there

Oh my goodness 

they are indeed everywhere

The tables have been turned over and the chairs have been thrown in the trees

And the teapots are full of sugar and the cups are stacked

Would you like to take a swing, or a seat or you could even take a branch if you would like

Hang upside down if it please you maybe

I think I will rest my bottom half upon a Toad Stool

It looks as if The White Rabbit and a Spirited Friend have beat us to 

the Toadstools

These two seem to be having a spectacular time. 

Lets see if we can listen in on their conversation

"We spent the evening draping spider webs back and forth 

through the tree branches

heheheh

"Oh Dearest White Rabbit, you should have seen it

We loved watching those prissy pink fairies trip right over them while flying by

Ertrisipy dropped ever bit of tulip nectar she had collected 

Right upon ole GOL TROPS head

Oh he was a fearful mess after that"

White Rabbit you look stunning today in your tea party attire

 

A cookie, a cake, a sweet a few, or maybe just some spoonful of sugar

I love spoonfuls of sugar

Oh my dearest goodness. I think I must of had tooo much sugar

Everything seems to be getting larger or am I growing smaller

I always seem to get myself in a Peanut butter

Or is that a Jam

(either one is pretty sticky)

Hello up there White Rabbit

Now where is that Tea cup of mine. 

Oh goodness. It is as big as me 

Or I am as small as it

How am I supposed to climb to the top of the table with this

Where is a Giant when you need one

 Oh there is Dear Alice

Hello my Wonderland friend

Looking a little windblown there arent we

Where is That Love of mine. 

There he is

OH Hatter 

I should have known you would be hanging around up there

I am so excited that the rest of you have joined us for this soiree

 The clothing you wear is of the most Spectacular sorts

I love your hat your coat and your lovely tea shoes

I wore my special leg lovlies just for you

and Hats oh my, 

it would not do to just wear one, so I mostly wear two

Have another cup of Tea

 

Everyone looks unseated, but comfortable sitting 

The elves are enjoying the tea and the sweets

Oh my goodness 

what is this

He is covered in cake

 

I think I will take a seat in this cozy cup

OH hello Mr Goose

Yes you may turn somersaults or roll upon the fluffy grass

run around with a tablecloth held high above your head

yelling " Curtains for the Queen"

if you please.

 

And the music plays on and we sing a song

"tiddley wink ado ado

tiddley wink adee adee

sprinkle stars from atop the moon

while stirring the big blue sea"

 

You seem like you have a long way to go these next few days

And your journey may be full of much tea 

and all sorts of shenanigans

so I bid you Farewell and may your way be curvy 

and up and down

and even in some spots Flipped all around

 

but may it be an Adventure to tell all about

 

Take some tea for your travels and a spoon as well 

for future sugar bowls 

Oh and here is a wishing star

I wish for you a most Wonderfully Wonderful Adventure

 

Thank you Miss V for hosting once again such a Wonderfully Enchanted Party

and Thank you 

Yes you 

for falling into the hole that led you to the Other side of Wonderland

on this Strangest of Days

May I say 

It was a Most Wonderously Mad Tea

 WISHES AND WHIMSY

Wendy from Wonderland

 

 

 

A Spoonful of Glitter .....

Makes everything so much more fun

I spent the day covered in paint 

and all sorts of glitter

and thought that maybe I would make a new windchime

I would love to share my shiny new treat with you

It arrives just in time for a spectacular tea party

Yes soon Miss V. from A Fanciful Twist will be hosting her 

Lovely and Magical Annual Tea Party.

Of course being the head of a 

Mad Hatter Secret Society of my Own, and

also living on the Other Side of Wonderland.

I must join in the fun every year.

She is soooo very wonderful and her parties are just 

Delicious

So make sure to stop by for a Spoonful of Mad Tea

****************************

Now for our Whimsical Glitter Spoon Windchime

It is really quite simple

All you will need is some elmers glue

an assortment of your favorite colored glitter(I used Martha Stewerts line)

but any would do. I would think the finer would adhere better though

Then some old spoons.

Thread or fishing wire

a wire hanger or other type of hanger

and other embellishments to your liking

Here we go

First bend your spoon to be able to tie the thread to it

also it looks more whimsical this way

Next coat the fat part of the spoon with glue

I just smear on with my fingers

Next sprinkle the glitter all over the spoon and tap off the excess

Yes this a fairy bottle of glitter. It does have wings. 

It loves to fly around though and dust the entire room or my head with glitter

quite often. Mischievious little one

Let dry while you finish the other spoons

Then take a coathanger or other circular object. I guess you could use a stick or straight rod as well.

 It just depends on the look you want

I covered my hanger with some leftover tinsel stars that I had from Christmas

 

Next take three strands of thread and attach at different areas on the hanger

This is going to be what hangs it from the ceiling or wherever else you would like

 Attach each spoon with a line of thread to the hanger. 

Let them hang at different levels for more interest.

 Then just have fun with whatever else you want to add

I added a butterfly and some more tinsel stars climbing up the 

hanging threads, and a little more around the top of each spoon

Maybe later I will add some crystals and more sparkly things.

But for now it is looking lovely hanging on my backporch above 

a lovely Tea Party Table.

If you have any more questions just drop me a line and I would love to 

see what whimsical and wonderful windchimes you created.

*************

Here is a little sneak at a new gypsy art piece that I am working on now

I love toadstools 

and my lovely toadstool gypsy

 

When you wish upon a Star.....

Today the littlest hatters and I decided to hang some Stars

On nights when the moon is closest and the sky is very bright

I grab my largest ladder and head out to the enchanted woods behind the house

In those woods resides a very very very Tall tree

I bet you are wondering what is at the top of that tree.

FALLEN STARS.

Yes, that is right. Lots of stars fall during the night and some find their way to my enchanted woods and to the top of that Very tall tree.

I gather those Stars and bring them back to the studio. 

I put them in a very special jar and then the magic begins

Those stars might have burnt out when they fell, but did you know you could  take a fallen star and put it back into the sky again just as sparkling and bright as ever

You just need a Star Child to replace it. That is where my littlest hatters come in.

They will pick a star from the jar, then add a Wish to it.

That wish will bring that star back to life. 

Then we wait again for the moon to be really close. 

We climb that ladder until we reach the sky and toss it back

What a wonderfully enchanted evening it becomes to watch all those fallen stars start to twinkle and shine again

**********************

Every once in awhile a few very special stars get to stay in the studio to twinkle and add some magical wishes to our little world
