Letters from Odelina the fairy...
Tales from Fairyland is a monthly fairy letter subscription where Odelina the fairy writes each month with news, stories, and secrets from her world, sent by post to your door. Set in real places and following the turning seasons, each letter invites you into her world of folklore, magic, nature and imagination.
A story told by post
Each month a letter arrives from Fairyland, continuing an unfolding story set in magical sites throughout the Cotswolds and beyond. The tale follows the natural rhythms of the year. It threads British folklore, magical happenings and real history into a tale about how humans and fairies can celebrate our wonderful world together.
The letters integrate storytelling with learning about folklore, nature, and seasonal traditions.
Fairytales are for everyone, and readers of different ages may take different things from the same story.
What Arrives Each Month
Every monthly fairy letter includes:
...A new chapter of the ongoing fairy story
...Some activities inspired by traditional British customs and the natural world
... A full colour A5 art print
... stickers and a temporary tattoo
...A colouring page illustrated by artist Jack Collis
...A creative prompt to write or draw and send back to Fairyland
Selected replies are showcased in the following month’s letter, creating a community of likeminded individuals and a platform to share your love of nature.
Guided by the Seasons
The fairy letters follow the natural year, drawing on:
...Seasonal plants and wildflowers
...British fairy folklore and customs

As the seasons turn, so does the story and setting. Therefore, the letters help readers to engage with cyclical changes, feeling rooted in place and tradition.
