September feels like a good time for new beginnings. Our eldest daughter has just flown the nest, which leaves a spare room in the house! This is going to be my new sewing room; leaving my previous one as a study and art studio. I’m currently in the midst of stripping old wallpaper, and then it will be filling the cracks, painting the walls, and carrying all my sewing stuff upstairs. There’s a lot to do, so I’m not starting any commissions right now. However, if you’re not in a hurry, please get in touch and we can start the ball rolling for your custom made dress. When the room is finished, I’ll be raring to go!

Hello! Here’s this month’s new blog post with ideas to freshen up your outfit choices and dress a little more creatively.

There’s a new blog post up with ideas to dress a little brighter and bolder in February. How to dress more creatively.
Online workshops are coming!
I’m really excited because things are finally coming together for the workshop I’ve been talking about for years now! I have the information video to edit, and actual workshop page to finish, but it’s moving forward at a pace! If you’re interested, don’t forget to sign up for newsletters to be the first to know more.
Happy New Year! Need wardrobe inspiration?
Happy New Year! I hope 2023 brings you lots of magical moments!
I’m starting a new series about How to dress more creatively each month. I’ll post it on the blog, but it will also be in the monthly newsletter (which I’m going to be a lot better about this year!) along with any current discounts in the shop or other relevant news.

Halloween costumes and postal strikes!
Hi! Have you got your Halloween costume ideas in place yet? I’m just reminding you that I have several unique items of clothing that would make the perfect sustainable Halloween costume! Please browse the Fairytale shop for ideas. You could find a classic witch costume, a spooky fairy outfit, a zombie Snow White costume or even find a pretty adult pumpkin costume!
However, time has already run out for overseas orders, so please only buy for Halloween 2022 if you’re in the UK. Don’t forget there are postal workers’ strikes happening on the 20th and 25th October, so please allow for this when expecting your delivery. I post second class recorded, so please place your order by Friday 21st October to allow for delays.
Thank you!
New items in the shop!
Hi! I’ve been busy listing new items of fairytale fashion over the last week or so. I’ve lost count how many (about twelve I think?) so I won’t list everything here, but now would be a good time to browse the Threads of a Fairytale online shop for your next sustainable and unique items of clothing!
A luxury mermaid costume
Here’s a blog post all about a new custom order I’ve recently finished making for a pretty ocean fairy dress. I think it could be a beautiful luxury mermaid costume!
