😢😢

Marie from Phillipstown

Sad to see that at this time of the year, some people are spoiling it for others.
This lovely lady paints the most beautiful art on stones, and glues them onto her fence for all to enjoy.
Now she will be stopping, people are stealing her gift to the Community, despite the fact we can all take as many photos as we want.
She has had a tough year dealing with her Mum being in hospital too.
The lovely Fairy of Cashel Street deserves better 😢😢💜
