Handmade fairy doors from Ireland

A wee door. A whole world behind it.

Cara is the Irish word for friend, and that is what a fairy door is: a friendly sign, left out in the open, that the good folk are welcome here.

Placing Your
Fairy Door

Ours are made to sit quietly in the wild — against bark, among ivy, at the edge of a flower bed or in a bedroom.

1

Pick the spot

A mossy trunk, a garden wall, a quiet skirting board. Fairies like somewhere sheltered with a good view.

2

Set the door

Press it in snug at ground level. No hole needed — the fairies handle that side of things themselves.

3

Leave a welcome

A note, an acorn, a thimble of water. Folklore advises to always leave an offering for the fairies.

Fairy post, straight to your door.

New doors, garden ideas and the odd bit of fairy gossip. No spam — the fairies wouldn't stand for it.
