You can buy an enchanting print, capturing a moment in the forest folk's daily lives, like in this Easter print here:
Or you can have your own little bit of forest, as with these toadstool earrings:
or flower wine glass charms:
Or you can share in the fairies' favourite things, with these raspberry fairy cake earrings:
I first had the idea for these forest folk years ago when I used to sit in my parents' back garden in north London. There was a little canopy made by some plants and shrubs and I often used to imagine a magical world hidden beneath them.
I didn't do anything about it until a few years ago when I rediscovered polymer clay and realised it was the perfect medium to make the little folk. And since then I've been working on this venture. The following year (2008) I came across Folksy and realised that I could set up a Folk of the Forest shop. It's taken me this long to get it all ready, but it's here now!
It's going well. I've already had a sale and am getting favourites every day. So fingers crossed for lots more sales!
