2. Munching on Fairies

I can't help walking through my house thinking, what can I discard?  I find myself surveying bookshelves, wall decor, and furniture.  I know the couch and chair will go when I move, and also the cheapy  bookshelves, but I am not tossing them out now.  Since the furniture is off limits--for now (imagine doing something creative with a couch without destroying it for the next person)--I am left with all my other stuff, meaning things I have become attached to or they wouldn't be in my house. This may be harder than I thought; but maybe it will just be more cathartic than I anticipated.  

This is what I created tonight:
It was a treasured fairy fountain from Partylite that I just had to have.  Isn't she beautiful? 

I love fairies but as you can see from the picture their wings have broken off and I can only find one set of wings.  Unfortunately, most of my fairies are missing wings--I wonder if that means anything? 

Also, I love the idea of fountains, but the truth is, they mostly drive me nuts -- especially in my bedroom.  This has been gathering dust for many years and I have contemplated getting rid of it many times, but just couldn't.   

I will keep the wings, and the little wingless fairy for a future art project but the rest is being discarded.
