Lady of the White Thorn

12/16/2018

Comments

 
Fairies don't exist they'll tell you.
Picture
But then you've never heard the true tale of the white thorn, a special tree in County Clare that sat alone in a vast meadow of green. Workers refused to cut it down, for it was the site of a fairy dwelling.
Picture
This tiny fairy is the protector of such trees, for they are the portals to the Wee Folk. She is their eyes and ears and sits upon the branches of the white thorn, bedecked in birch and the dried petals of a white rose.
Picture
Every part of the flower is her garb.
Picture
Her skirt is the color toasted marshmallow.
Picture
Her bodice is stitched up the back with off white thread.  Go to our Etsy page to order a custom Lady of the White Thorn fairy dress for yourself.
