Gardner Village Blog Your Map of Fairy Crafts and Classes
Wednesday May 15 2019

It’s no secret—fairies are skilled craftswomen. I mean, look at the phenomenal homes they’ve built for their spring layover in Gardner Village! So it’s no wonder fairy crafts are a major part of the Woodland Fairy Festival 2019. There’s so much to see and do while you’re here. Consider this your official Craft Map of things to create when you visit.

FAIRY WANDS & FAIRY-CATURES AT THE ART COTTAGE

Cast a sweet spell with a wonderful wooden wand. Choose from many designs, add a splash of paint and glitter, and tie it with a ribbon to complete your charming accessory. 

 

NEW THIS YEAR! Have a fairy-cature drawn. A local artist will share his sketching magic and bring your fairy personality to life in this unique sidewalk stop.

The Art Cottage

WANDS: All business hours throughout the WFF
FAIRY-CATURES: WFF Saturdays from 12:30 to 2:00 pm(ish) 

 

FAIRY DUST BATH BOMBS AT M SOAPS

You know what they say, all you need is faith, trust, and a litte pixie dust. Kids will love mixing their pixie potion at this pour-your-own bathbomb dust station, and grownups will love that said potion will make bathtime more fun!

POUR YOUR OWN BATH DUST: All business hours throughout the Woodland Fairy Festival

 

FAIRY BRACELETS AT SPOILED ROTTEN CHILDREN’S BOUTIQUE

A fairy is nothing if not a fashionista. Beyond the wings and head things, she likes to complete the outfit with jewelry. No wonder this bracelet make-and-take at Spoiled Rotten is so popular. Stop by, pick your fav fairy color, and get to accessorizing!

FAIRY WANDS, CROWNS, COLORING AND CROSSSTITCH AT POSH PAPERIE
