when i was 12 a guy told me that if i kept a tub of water with rose petals in it in a dark room lit with candles alone infront of a mirror i would catch a fairy bathing!
A childhood belief about fairies

others believed things like this
- All flowers had exactly five petals and two leaves.— MD Caruso
- As a kid, I use to believe that candles were made out of ear wax.— CC
- I used to think that the wax statues at Madame Tussauds were made of recycled candles and crayons.Anon
- I was born brunette with brown eyes and dark hair, i thought people with blue eyes, had water in them.Anon
- Up until I was in 3rd grade I believed my bathing cap is what kept me afloat in the swimming pool! Anon
- when i was young i used to believe that my image on a mirror would come to life if i broke the mirror.Anon
