FEEDING THE FAE
There are certain enticements that have been known to attract even the most
distrustful of little folk. They are especially fond of ground ginger,
barley, icing candies (the sort used to decorate birthday cakes) and
anything that glitters. Place a miniature basket to hold such offerings in
your garden. You will have faeries standing in line around the block. Of
course, do not expect your gifts to disappear once they are discovered.
Faeries, you know, exist in the spirit world and are able to extract the
spirit essence of a thing and leave the outer shell behind.
You will need to replace these gifts often however if you expect any
self-respecting faery to stay around for very long. Faeries of the garden
variety have a fondness for thyme, clover (three leaves only, as the four
leaved variety will repel the little creatures) , primrose, and of course
hawthorn which is sacred to the faeries. Foxglove, also called Faery
petticoats,faery thimbles, and folk's glove will provide the wee folk with
many garment options and should be grown in every garden desirous of
faeries. Faeries also dress in moss, fox skins, flowers and spider webs |
