If you dream of a mossy fairytale forest...

Once upon a time



In a Kingdom far away..


nightime fell, and golden haired faeries came out to play!





The mushrooms glistened by the moonlight,






the fire and dragon flies buzzed about.



The fire flickered against the pages


your map lead you on this route...


It was a peaceful little space...far far away..






a fairy tale dreamland
ready for you, any day.

Gothic Boudoir

Peek into the life of a young Victorian lady who has a taste for the lovely and dainty,
and also the creepy and darker side of life..

Her empty birdcage hangs in the window



Her dressing table and pearl covered seat trimmed with lace..


She hangs a cross upside down and has set a bronze feather alongside it.
A pearl rosary hangs across her mirror


A photograph of a young man hangs on the wall... perhaps her lover?

depending on how you look at it... I wonder who this fellow is?


3 cherubs sit atop her mirror, a gold bow in the center



Under her dresser, a creeping rat! I hope he doesn't chew at her shoes!


she has a tiny button, a key, a ouiji pointer, and some perfume bottles..
a candle is dripping wax onto the skull where it is positioned.
Dried roses all around..


roses, lace and pearls

Time for spooky things ~ Forest Fairy Apothecary


Deep in the forest, the fairy shaman stores away all the things that make his majik possible..
He is old and his time has come to gain an apprentice!
Do you know how to make fairy magic?

Perhaps you could be the one he is looking for to help take over his shop..



potion bottles made from crystal, coral, glass and pearl line the top shelf, watch for spiders!



a fairy skull, cicada wing, skeleton key and snake vertebra
Our shaman is careful to only collect the things that nature is finished with. This cicada had already passed into the Otherworld, and the snake was one the shaman found on his forest path... a baby, all dried up. Excellent time to harvest the bone energy!

small conch shell, coral and frog eggs.
Our shaman would have traded with a mermaid shaman to get the coral.
Trading and sharing supplies is a very important part of making it all happen.
The frog eggs were collected from a local pond.

birdcage, blue egg and nest, clamshell with phosphorescent potion and a large spoon for stirring
The egg was a gift from mama bird. She knows how much the shaman appreciates her offering.
It will help make many people better!



I wonder what is in the shamans cauldron (the clam shell)?
its some kind of glow in the dark potion... maybe we have to wait for nightfall to find out.


fairy book o' mycology, toadstool aka fly agaric mushroom, bat wing and quartz crystal



sacred sage plant in terracotta pot. Sage is used to purify the air and energy in the room.
Smart of this shaman to grow some!



covered in spiderwebs




butterfly in oval frame, forest floor mushrooms and moss



a birch paper sign with star and moon. Our fairy shaman could have asked a deer for help to peel the birch paper from the tree, then carefully, he painted a sign with ashes and mud.
The moon and star shows that he knows the goddess majik, one that honors life and its cycles of death and darkness.





spider webs, a little friend and a hidden key...

I wonder what this key is for?

You'll have to ask the forest fairy shaman .. he might tell you, but then again.. he might not.
Some things are better left discovered by yourself ;)


This one is sold, but there is a Fairy Witch Apothecary now too :)
