If you haven’t seen my blog post about it, I thought I’d pop into the News section and let you know that it’s the New Forest Fairy Festival this weekend, the 14th and 15th of August. It’s a wonderful day out, and I’ll be having my Threads of a Fairytale stall there again this year, so hopefully I’ll see you there! Come and say hello!

New Forest Fairy Festival 2021
New Forest Fairy Festival Fairy Door Competition
Hi! Just letting you know that the New Forest Fairy Festival are holding a handmade Fairy door competition! Get creative and have fun! Anyone can join in and the winner will be announced on the 21st of June. Just post a photo on the New Forest Fairy Festival facebook page.
Time for a little break!
Hello everyone! I’m absolutely exhausted after the wonderful New Forest Fairy Festival last week, and now I’m taking a break for a few days so the shop will be closed. I’ll catch up with any queries and re-open on the 1st September with renewed energy for making lots of new dresses!
In the mean time, if you’d like to take a behind-the-scenes look at having a stall at the New Forest Fairy Festival, here’s a little video I made of the weekend:
The New Forest Fairy Festival
It’s a wonderful little festival in the witchy town of Burley in the heart of the New Forest, Hampshire. If you’re facing the main stage, my stall is going to be the second to the right of the stage. Do come and say hello if you’re going to be there this weekend. I’m nearly packed! It’s the only festival I’m doing this year, so I hope it’s going to be a sunny one!
If you’d like to know a bit more about some of the other exhibitors, I’ve been interviewing them for my blog, here.
Holiday & Festival dates
I’m just about recovered from an exhausting Glastonbury Festival, but now I’m giving you advanced notice that all Oshun shops (and wickedfaeriegifts) will be closed from the evening of 4th of July until 28th of July. Not long after that, from 13th – 14th August, all my stock will be coming with me to the New Forest Fairy Festival, so if you’ve had your eye on anything, now’s the time to get it!
New Forest Fairy Festival 2015 + holiday dates
Hello everyone and welcome to Oshun if you’ve just found me from the New Forest Fairy Festival. I had an awesome weekend in Burley – it’s such a beautiful part of England – I love going to the New Forest. It’s even better when surrounded by beautiful creative people and a sprinkling of fairy dust! I met so many wonderful fairies and it was lovely seeing Holly – who did an amazing job organising the event – walking about on Sunday in her new sparkly mermaid dress bought at my stall 🙂 Photos of the festival will be on my Facebook page when I get back from holiday….
which will be for 2 weeks, so my shops will be closed from Friday 21st August till 4th September. Apologies for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience. Right, I’m now off to unpack the stock from my campervan and clean like mad because my parents are house/dog sitting for us!
The New Forest Fairy Festival
Oh dear – I was so busy getting ready, I forgot to tell you about this festival in advance! Well, I’ve just returned and we had a great time and met lots of wonderful fairies. I even received a lovely note hidden on my table and delivered by faerie post! I’ll add pictures to Oshun’s facebook page as soon as I get chance.
