More Fairies in the Garden

I had been waiting for decent weather to take the three JID fairies to the Ruins Gardens for pictures. So we went yesterday afternoon. But there was no way to get to it. I knew the Guild Inn had been sold, and would be undergoing renovations, but there were also two big new buildings under construction. The old Park entrance is a muddy construction entrance, and there's no way to drive to the back parking lot. There is a pathway along the west side, but there's no parking allowed on either side of the very narrow street. The only way to go now, would be to park in the high school parking lot that's at the west end of the woods, on a weekend when theres no one there, and walk along the street to the path, and then down to the lake.  What a HUGE disappointment. I mean, it's nice the Guild Inn is being saved, but what's going to happen with the Ruins garden?

So, the only place left to take doll photos was either in the woods, or in my backyard. I didn't feel like getting down in the woods, so that left my backyard.  The backyard is all bare and ready for winter, and there's not much left that works as a background for doll pictures.....

But there's still one tiny spot, at the base of the bridal wreath spirea, which still has most of it's tiny yellow leaves. It's where I shot the Kaye Wiggs fairies last week, and hadn't planned on using again for these JID fairies. But with no choice, out in the back we all went....
