Salt... or Pepper








The question I always ask myself is... is the salt black with white dots or white with black dots...is the pepper black dots with white or white dots with black...

So...I just give up... and use both...

Treasure

Meet Dave










Meet Dave. Inspired by all the Daves that have been in my world. This adorable Original Sock Monster™ comes to us from the land of socks without partners. And as I have found out...socks sometimes are not the only ones!

As you can see...this little creature is sporting some handsome handmade buttons too.

This guy is a keeper. Always there when you need em.

A peek inside...and out of Fairytale Incorporated







Here is a peek inside and out...
Fairytale Incorporated is inspired everyday by the good fortune of this magical barn.

Two years ago, several people wanted to tear down this lovely creature. And from the sight of it...you might agree!


But without the hard work and determination of craftsmen like Dave Ciolek Barn Restoration and Dave Scholten Custom Remodeling this barn would not have been possible.

I'm inspired everyday when I walk into this sacred space.

As you can see...much of the existing wood and flooring was saved...believe it or not... and any replacement wood that was needed was obtained by other barns that were being dismantled.

It took one long, but thankfully mild winter to hand crank this barn into shape.

The hole in the roof was the size of a tree. As a matter of fact, there was a tree growing in the roof!

After deciding to keep the outside in it's original condition. The artistic craftsmen insulated the walls and lined them with corrugated steel. A great touch that aligns the present with the past.

This was truly the beginning of the fairytale. No one thought the barn could be saved. Well, almost no one.

So...I do believe...dreams really do come true at Fairytale Incorporated.


King Cody



This is The Original King Hat™. Handmade with washable wool.
And the most beautiful prince one might feast their eyes on is...Cody, perched upon a stool in the Fairytale headquarters.

Handsome prince...handsome hat.
