I'll do the first one for you.
". . . the long wickers are fairy's hair which fly in the air."
Please post your transformation for the second simile, and we'll be glad to critique it for you.
...the fascicles of flowers are the old man's beard, which grow on the branches for decorating the trees...
is it correct?
Your transformation for the second simile is close, but not quite correct. Here's the correct transformation:
"The fascicles of flowers on the branches decorate the trees, resembling the old man's beard."
You want to make sure that the transformed quote still maintains the comparison between the objects in the simile. In this case, the flowers are compared to the old man's beard, and they are both described as decorating the trees.
