New Wings

New Wings

Here at Fairy Finesse we have had a busy start to the year attending lots of fairy and pirate parties but in between entertaining children I have been busy creating new wings for next seasons festivals.

Please see slideshow above to see the wings I have completed so far but keep checking back as I have lots more wings in progress. Some of the wings still need to named so any suggestions would be most welcome.

Our first festival this year will be the Elf Fantasy Fair in the Netherlands in April. This is an amazing event where people wear the most amazing costumes and really get into charector. I am hoping to go with lots of new wings to sell so I shall be a busy but happy fairy creating new stock.

Sending you all a sprinkling of fairy dust.....

Festive Fairies Are Ready To Go

Well its been a while since I updated the blog now the festival season seems but a distant memory. After a short period to rest my weary wings, it has been busier than ever with a good mix of fairy parties to attend and of course the Christmas season to prepare for.

I have booked a stall at the NEC Christmas Gift Fayre next week, so I have been running round manically trying to get everything ready. I now have a new range of fairy headdresses designed so I have spent the morning glittering them and glueing fluff onto my fairy wands.

I have loads of new stock in so hopefully it will be a busy show with lots of people wanting to buy their children fairy outfits. I have made myself a new floor length purple festival style fairy skirt and I am having a purple corset top made to match, now I just need to make myself new fairy wings before next week!!!

My daughter had an Haiwan themed day at her nursery today in aid of Children In Need, so I dressed her as a Haiwan Fairy, if theres the slightest chance I can bring the fairy theme into most events. She looked gorgeous.

Tonight I am busy at the school Christmas Fayre, where I have set up a stall for the pre-school, where the kids can make their own Magic Reindeer Food, and yes you guessed it I will be dressed as a fairy!

Right must fly.

Towersey Village Festival Photos

Towersey Village Festival





Well firstly let me apologise for the delay in writing up the review of this event but better late than never.

After the chaotic atmosphere at V, I was really looking forward to this festival. Saff and I arrived on site Thursday afternoon to be directed to our pitch which as per usual was not quite what had been expected. The size was smaller than had been booked so I wasted an hour trying to get things moved about to give us room to pitch behind the stall. Things like this always seem to happen but they never get any less annoying as it wastes time that I'd rather spend actually getting the stall set up. The other dissapointing factor was there was another fairy stall less than 2 minutes from our stall, they were lovely people who no doubt were also none to happy about us being there. Still despite all that we set the stall up and got ready for the following day.


Towersey is an unusual festival, it has the feel of a village fete and you walk through the campsite to get to the different areas of the festival. I thought this worked really well as the campsite became part of the festival rather than being in a field miles away. The highlight of the evenings seemed to be the Ceilidh which was held in a massive marquee. It was fantastic fun with everyone dancing from tiny kids to grandparents, some taking it very seriously and others clearly with no idea what was happening. Having joined in for one dance I would put myself firmly in the second group, dancing in your wellies, trying to keep up when you don't know the steps is incredibably hard but very funny.

Overall really enjoyed this festival as did the kids who came with Dan at the weekend, although they spent most of their time busy in the play park. My only complaint would be with regard to the night bat walk. My son was desperate to take part so we wrapped up warm and made are way to the venue only to discover it was full, having only had spaces for 16 people. To say I lost my fairy vibe would be an understatement as it was not only my son who was in tears but I saw many other families also dissapointed, I felt it should of been stated on the programme that spaces for this activity were limited and then we could of prewarned the children they might not be able to take part.

Apart from that I thought it was a lovely festival with lots going on and a really good feel to it.

Check out the above slide show of the customers we managed to snap.

Fairy Finesse are now getting busy booking up the Christmas gift fairs so will add these to the site as soon as all confirmed.
