A Fabled Label

Pixie Dust Decor

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away,
A lady made linens that were anything but blasé.

She crafted bibs and bumpers, calling them Pixie Dust Decor,
Coverlets, aprons, and poufs for the floor.
In brushed cotton poplin, a print reverie 
Ran the gamut from chateau to chinoiserie.

Vintage toys for boys in brash shades of blue,
Or a pink pattern of topiaries she hand drew.
Something for everyone, gal or gent,
Even lemony stripes for parents planning surprise events.

Timeless with a twist — all did declare!
Just the thing for those with a nursery to prepare.
