The Fairytale Trail is a gallery of submitted fairy houses, small structures built from natural materials. They can be made as a family, a group, a business, or an individual, all of whom will be honored in the Fairy Festival program for their participation. Registration is required. Drop off and set up of submitted houses will take place on Friday, July 16th between the hours of 9am and 6pm. Please see below for rules and guidelines.
Houses may be any size but should be kept to a miniature scale
Houses must be made of only natural materials: feathers, dry grasses, leaves, sticks, pebbles, shells, bark from a fallen tree, moss, nuts, acorns, berries, gourds, pinecones, etc.
Houses must appear to be made only of natural materials, but you may use structural components – hot glue, twine, acrylic spray, etc. – as long as they are concealed.
Please avoid using reproductive parts from invasive species (roots, seed pods, etc.), that may spread.
Please do not use items of value in your decorations as we cannot be held responsible for missing items.
Edible materials will attract other creatures besides fairies! Use them at your own risk.
