I finally found a fairy house in the city. Here’s the door.

It is perfect & cozy on Bathurst Street.

Kids’ Park & Community Garden

I found this art a few days ago in a kids’ park & community garden.

KidsG #1

Of course it was -10C, but as this is Kids’ Month on GLaM, I took off my gloves and shot these adorable images that decorate a tool shed.

KidzG #2

Michelle Eastman, whose personal cause is
