Buckeye Fairy Pans


Our Buckeye tree is again dropping its nuts, and we are enjoying collecting them. Apparently, this is the season the Woods Fairies collect buckeye nuts and fashion their pots and pans for the coming year. We were lucky enough to find a few fairy pots in the grass!

See them here by the dandelion plant in the grass? Look closely, they are easy to miss!

To get an idea of size, these two baskets and tiny pine cone are sitting in my camera lens cap.

Here are a few assorted pots and pans arranged for photos.

A plate, a fry pan, a spoon and even a spatula!

Fine Fairy workmanship.


A small stash in a woody copse.

Just the right size for a tiny pine cone for the Fairy fires.

One lovely basket by the watering can. Pictures by Daughter M.
