Welcome to my fae facts page.
Faeries love nature, woodland animals, flowers and herbs.
They love certain stones, especially shiny ones like marble,
tiger eyes or processed stones that are smooth. They are also
attracted to staurolite, lava, fluorite, peridot and jade.
The most sacred and favorite stone is the green emerald.Green is the faeries traditional favorite color in many lands.
Probably because it is the prevalent color of nature.
They love clean water, milk, butter, bread, cakes, honey and wine.
If you want to give a gift to the faeries, hang ribbons or rags on thorn branches.
They love folk music from their native lands. Especially when played on a folk instruments like the pennywhistle or the recorder.
Farmers who have had faerie encounters
say faeries like to play in the straw and love strawberries.
