A perfect ball for all hollows eve

A night when the witches fly high on there broom sticks and all manner of folk come out to play, you see them hand in hand laughing with such delight, they finery is clear for all to see as they make there way to to the misty hall in Avalon...... Now what could i be talking about?...... The Samhian Faery Ball!, the new annual event to take place in Glastonbury, I've mention before how this place is steeped in such magical and mystical history, so it makes perfect sense for a faery ball to be held here, after all the Tor is home to Gwyn ap Nudd who was first Lord of the Underworld, and later King of the fairies, as well as it being the final resting place for King Aruther who was brought here by Morgan le Fay ( a sorcress).

So whats in store for this most magical of nights (and weekend)? Well for started theres not one but two faery balls!
The 1st being for the younger pixies who can't always attend the festivities due to being too little or there tucked away dreaming peacefully.

"The debut Avalon Children’s Faery Ball featuring Sparkle the Fairy & friends! The Children’s Faery Ball will take place in the small hall while the Faery Fayre takes place in the main hall, so parents can enjoy the fayre whilst their children are at the Faery Ball!" Tickets £5

The treasure trove that is the jewellery box

As a little girl there was nothing better then sorting through my mothers jewellery box and pretending it was treasure or the queens jewels. As I've gotten older my love of jewellery still remains, like most fairies jewellery is just as important as anything else that we adorn ourselves with when going to a ball, feast or just to play.
So lets have a look at someone who's jewellery is perfect for the Fae in us.

Faery Kisses is the delight full company of Victoria Baume (aka Trixie Belle), having recently graduated from Birmingham’s Illustrious School of Jewellery with a BA(hons) in Jewellery Design for Industry, Victoria can now really let her creative flare take its rightful place in the ever growing word of jewellery.
Her creations are taken straight from the magical word she lives in, and made into necklaces, earrings, brooches and bracelets. No two pieces are ever the same, and this is a true sign of every item being made lovingly by hand, something that gets lost when jewellery comes off a conveyor belt.
I'm sure you'll find something that goes with your own Faery style , for the darker side Anathema is sure to delight,  If your more of a free Sylph her new feather and bead collection will fit you perfectly. But a collection I'm sure every fae will enjoy is that of Orginal Kisses! One of my favorites is the Sweet little damselfly necklace, there something so perfect about it but i can't put into words what it is, but then that's the wonder and magic that these items bring. you don't have to express yourself the jewellery does that for you and that's all down to Victoria's talent of turning a piece of silver into something perfectly detailed and enchanting.

Faery Fashions!

Today i thought it might be fun to share some faery fashion. my 1st instalment is in the form of the bright creations of T.P.F Faerie wear. Everything is made by hand and custom orders are always welcomed with open arms.
Helen is dedicated to giving her customers the very best, if theres something that she doesn't already have stocked away she'll hunt down the right fabric or she'll try and get something very close to what you're looking for. Living up in Whitby she often makes it to the Goth Weekends and is quite comfortable working with PVC, she's forever challenging herself so she becomes accustomed to working with new materials. But its not just clothing that this very talented lady does, she also makes gloves, tie, hats (top and tricorns), hoods and pixie pockets.
If you asked me what her best sellers were I'd say her Tutus and Hoods!... but then i think I'd might have to change that to her beautiful Korrigan Shrugs and Corsets.... come to think about it, i don't think i could say what her best sellers are as nearly everything is in high demand, her custom orders seem to be a weekly occurrence.

If you'd like to see more or make an order for anything, the best place to do so at the moment is on her facebook page, You will be able to buy things from her Etsy page as well, at the moment its still a baby but give it time and you'll have made a fond friend
