Greetings from FaeryLand,

You have chosen and Kirks Folly is proud to announce the winner of our "Spook-tacular Witch Hat Photo Contest". Nicole Vigil of Fairfax, CA, has placed first in the customer voting and won with 15.63% of the votes. Congratulations and enjoy your Halloween goodies!!!

My family and I have returned from a whirlwind trip to London for our Kirks Folly and DreamKeeper shows and our Fabulous Fairy High Tea at the Enchanted Manor on The Isle of Wight (back in mid October). What a magical place! The Island, the Manor and especially the People!!!

The Lady and Lord of the Manor, Maggie and Ric were so warm and welcoming we immediately felt at home. And what an Enchanting Manor it was - faeries everywhere you looked. If anyone is traveling to that part of the world I would encourage you to make a trip to the Enchanted Manor (www.enchantedmanor.co.uk) - what a magical experience.

We had the very special honor of meeting the amazing faery artist Josephine Wall and her husband Bob. They spent the weekend with us at the Manor with many of our customers and we whiled away the days dreaming of future projects together. If you would like to see her work go to www.josephinewall.com.

The Fairy High Tea was a great success. Everyone came sparkling in their Kirks Folly and DreamKeeper favorites. There were Faeries, Witches, the Green Man and even Dorothy dropped in for tea. Mothers, Grandmothers, Daughters, Sisters, Friends and Lancelots had an amazing day getting to know each other and sharing the magic of FaeryLand. People came from far and wide and it was greatly appreciated. I am including some pictures and video for your enjoyment. Please Click Here for pictures and Click Here for videos.

We send a big Thank You and Faery Kisses to our friends in the UK.

I leave you with this:
