Dryad Design Statues and Jewellery

Dryad Design is the work of artist Paul Borda. Taking inspiration from mythology, in particular Celtic, Norse and Sumerian, the statues look amazing on altars or the jewellery worn as ritual wear. His statues are cast in resin but as most of the originals were carved from wood, the reproductions have a lovely surface texture and look. Shown above is the Faerie Pentacle, with vines entwined about the pentacle and surrounded by a satyr, faerie, dragon and mermaid.

Autumns Path Ritual Wares

Autumns Path is a source of beautiful handmade ritual and magical items. It features many items suitable for faerie magics – the finely carved wooden altars, grimoires, wands and other products have a seven-pointed Faery Star design burnt onto them. There are also tapers, oils, gemstones, candles, magical inks and powders, herbs, a summoning whistle and more, suitable for Faerie spellweaving. The athame, made from oak and apple wood, is particularly suited to working with the Fae who traditionally have an aversion to iron and steel, which most athames are usually made of. There is also a range of pottery items featuring the Faery Star and hand-painted butterflies.

Willowroot – Real Magic Wands

Abby Willowroot has been crafting one-of-a-kind magic wands since the 1980’s.

Made from the finest quality lead-free pewter with natural stones and crystals carefully selected for their properties, there are many stunning faery designs available (pictured above is the Faery Garden wand).

The Faery Faith Network

The Faery Faith Tradition is a path based on Irish history and faery folklore, and forms the background to the teachings of Kisma K. Stepanich-Reidling. The Faery Faith Network brings together followers of this path and offers on-line classes and guidance – you can currently enrol in ‘An Introduction to the Faery Faith Tradition’ for free. There is also a yearly pilgrimage to Ireland’s sacred sites, giving members the chance to meet and work with Kisma and experience the magic of Ireland for themselves. Although much of the site is members only there is some interesting reading to be had, and for those who wish further investigate this path there are a number of books available including Faery Wicca and Kisma’s Novel ‘Faery With Teeth’ (pictured above).

Faeriecraft: Treading the Path of Faerie Magic

Written by Faerie Priestess Alicen Geddes-Ward and illustrated by her husband Neil, Faeriecraft is a book for people who want to deepen their connection to Faerie. It is a spiritual path based on a Wiccan framework but is more inclusive and approachable. The topics range from introductions to the Fae and Faerieland, creating an altar, visualisations and meditations, and ideas for rite of passage rituals. The Faeriecraft website gives you a sampling of what the book and path has to offer. There is also The Faerie Fellowship, which is a sister site to Faeriecraft, where followers of the path can meet and work together.
Alicen is currently writing another book on Faeries, this time collecting together people’s real life experiences and is looking for readers to submit their own stories.
