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!

The Oshun Dress

Have you seen Beyonce’s video album, Lemonade? She wears a beautiful yellow dress inspired by the goddess Oshun, and I’ve been inspired to make my own! If you’d like to read a bit more about how I chose Oshun to be the name of my clothing brand; and how I made this particular dress, then please take a look at my blog post all about it!

New Year, new plans!

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all have a magical and fun-filled 2015. I’ve been busy getting the accounts done for the year (yawn) and also planning which festivals to bring Oshun’s traveling boutique to (yay). My plans for the year are to begin with making some accessories and jewellery for the fairs and festivals; and then I’ve been designing a collection which I hope to bring to a selection of shops across the country. If I have time on top of that I’ll continue my experiments with natural printing and dyeing and make some wedding gowns using some of the antique fabric I’ve been collecting. Exciting and busy times ahead!
