Fairy fridge magnets, make a wish, resin sphere, preserved thistledown, fairy ball.

Many childhood memories are built around the capture of a fairy. The fairies are caught and held within the cup of two hands, paying special attention not to damage their wispy filaments in the process. Then they are set free, the finder blowing them into the wind as they make a wish.

You will find thistle fairies wherever thistle grows. The thistle plant has a great significance in many cultures around the world. In Celtic symbolism the thistle is believed to be a symbol of resiliency, strength, resolve, protection and pride.

Thistle fairies, or thistledown, appearing on your windowsill is believed to foretell that good news is on its way.

With your own fairy ball you can make an infinite number of wishes!

Each fairy is set in resin and then mounted on a wooden base. A strong magnet placed within the wood allows your fairy ball to pin notices to your fridge, or anything else magnetic. You may simply use your fairy ball as an ornament, to be used whenever a wish is required for a dream come true.

To make a wish:
1. Hold your fairy ball and close your eyes
2. Take a few deep breaths to clear your mind
3. Focus your thoughts on your wish
4. Imagine the feel of your wish coming true
5. Visualise the wind carrying your wish off into the world
6. Think of your wish often and believe it to come true

Note that nature rarely creates perfect forms. Every fairy is different, but be assured that only the best specimens are gathered for preservation.

Fairy balls comes in 3 base colours; green, blue and black. Please indicate your preference when purchasing.

A preserved fairy captures the magic of childhood and the beauty of nature.

It is a perfect gift for nature enthusiasts, dreamers, or anyone who appreciates the magic of a wish.
