Do you believe in fairies?
Have you ever met a real, life Disney fairy? I have! Last December, I had the wonderful honor of meeting Margaret Kerry, the model for Tinker Bell in the original Peter Pan movie. What a delightful woman!
She opened my eyes to the world of Disney fairies. About that time, Disney was launching a new series of characters - special friends to share Tinker Bell's world!
Since then, I've tried to sprinkle some pixie dust on myself and everyone I meet. Take a peak at the Disney fairies, and sprinkle some pixie dust yourself!
Believing in fairies is just the beginning...
Come see why...

The Original Tinker Bell
Margaret Kerry
As I mentioned earlier, I met Margaret Kerry in December 2005 at a fan meet known as MouseFest. At first, I thought, "Eh, so what's the big deal?" Then I spent the day watching her meet her fans. Her pixie grin, sparkling eyes, and easy laugh convinced me that she is truly Tinker Bell. I mentioned to her that I was probably more like Wendy. Her comment: "Dear, you're a recovering Wendy."Margaret has a wonderful website: Tinker Bell Talks! She shares photos and stories from her memorable career. For the most fun, click on "Strictly Tink!" in the top menu.
