It's been a long cold winter, heavy on snow and ice, even here in my usually winterfree home wilds! There's a cold icy rim on the moon, sparkling bright and hard as the heart of winter

Snowy Moonlight Earrings and Moonlight Faery Ballroom Necklace by Mermaiden
and ring in the soft chiming voice of ice crystals singing together on snowy evenings
Snowflake Bracelet by Athena's Armoury
Beautiful or no, all the glitter wears on the eyes and all the cold eats aways at the spirit. It's enough to make any heart hungry for warmer weather, and fresh green growing things-- or maybe just a little bit of ripe fruit, Persephone style
The Hungriest Pixie Ever, by Erthefae
and a maybe a little shelter, hidden under the sparkle and edges of the ice
Snow Pixie Vessel by Anika's Art
to stay warm and wait for spring.
If you're hungry for brighter skies too
