♡ OH! Inese found a graffiti mural by Birdo in Ireland! ♡
It wasn’t always this glamorous out here in the alley.
“Destination Mammal Cabana” was a quirky mural. I adored it & walked by it almost every day. Click on the pic to visit the post I did 4 years ago. It’s now in RIP
Artists: Birdo, Spudbomb and SKE 1
Then, recently one morning, I walked through the alley and saw:
It was hideous.
Graffiti Art had been obliterated by graffiti throw-ups and tags.

Using Fairy Power, I got word of the devastation out to the street artists.
Soon after, on Easter Morning, I saw this:
It was like a dream come true!

So, I put on a clear plastic garment bag and a gorgeous 10 year old Vera Wang wedding gown. I hightailed it back down to the alley,
… whereupon Tensoe painted me,
… while I took in all the new art.
It had been decided by the artists that they would do predominately Graf Writing, as a means to keep the destroyers away.
Blow me up!
⭐ Sherrie, there’s a rat in this slideshow for you! At least I think it’s a rat. Lol, last rat turned out to be a squirrel.

After I was finished, I was named Tenesa, and had my picture taken with all the Graf Writing and pieces.
♫ ♫ I feel pretty, oh so pretty ♫ ♫
Best time I’ve had since New Years!

Not sure how this happened? There was only 1 pic like this.
Oh no, it’s time to go! Sniff!

I would like to take a ⭐ fairy moment ⭐ here to thank Brenda Davis Harsham. Her blog, Friendly Fairytales is absolutely wonderful. It’s as though Brenda got lost in the woods, as a child, then was found and raised by fairies.
Brenda was one of the first two who said they would contribute to Kids’ Month. She wrote 3 poems. Thank you, Brenda!
I’d like to add that Brenda’s fairy knowledge of all lands magic gave me the idea for the title, and a centered concept for this post. In my heart I feel she is the “Redemption Wall Fairy”.
The Gown Artist:
Thank you, Tensoe! You are forever etched into my heart!
A new beauty has appeared in an alley in Kensington Market.
There is no place in Toronto where Street Art is held to sucha street standard, yet, this past winter in Kensington saw a throw up devastation like no other.
Very few pieces were left untouched. She is one of the survivors.
This is the second of 3 poems Georgiann Carlson has generously submitted for Kids’ Month.

Look what I found for Georgiann, a street art pigeon! It’s just a tiny little bit of art, hiding in a corner in a alley. Anyway, it’s for her and if you click on it, you will be transported to her blog via pigeon magic.
