my very creative and talented niece
just on the cusp of teenager-hood
presented me
with this lovely fairy
made on her way to come for a visit
with plaited hair
a hand-painted face
and fashion-forward attire
she was such a joyful surprise
due to her acorn cap beret and sense of style
i’ve decided to give my new fairy the french name of ‘brie.’

Only, I disagree with name: I read brie and I see French cheese… 🧀😃

That is the most adorable little fairy doll I have ever seen..not like I’ve seen a bunch but little Brie is just exquisite. Her skirt/dress looks like rose petals. And yes, with her braids and beret, she looks very French! Love her!
