The story behind All About Fairies: folklore, fairy places, and a lifelong love of the magical world
If you’re visiting our About page, you’re probably wondering who is behind All About Fairies and why this site exists.
Today, the site is run by Mogsy, a long-time lover of fairy folklore, fairy gardens, and the magical world that surrounds stories of fairies, fae, and fantasy creatures.
How All About
Fairies began...
All About Fairies was originally created in 2008 by Sherry and Bill, who shared a love of fantasy, storytelling, and the sense of wonder that fairy tales can spark.
For Sherry, that love began early. As a child, she was fascinated by fairy tales and stories like Peter Pan, and she carried that sense of imagination with her into adulthood.
Bill brought a deep interest in fantasy, especially The Lord of the Rings, along with the curiosity and web-building experience that helped shape the site itself.
That original spirit of wonder is still part of the site today.
Since 2025, All About Fairies has been run by Mogsy, who is continuing the site with a focus on sharing easy-to-read articles, folklore, magical places, and fairy-inspired ideas for readers who enjoy exploring this world for themselves.
Who this site is for
This site is for people who are curious about:
- fairies and the fae
- folklore and legends
- fairy tales and fantasy creatures
- fairy-related places and traditions
- magical, imaginative corners of culture and storytelling
Some visitors arrive because they want to understand fairy folklore better. Others are looking for a fairy bridge, fairy pools, fairy gardens, or classic tales they remember from childhood. Some simply enjoy the atmosphere of magic, myth, and imagination.
If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
About Us - What you’ll find here
All About Fairies is designed to make this subject easy to explore. Here you’ll find pages about the history and meaning of fairies, articles on the fae and other fantasy beings, guides to fairy tales, and features on places connected with fairy traditions and folklore.
The aim is simple: to give readers a welcoming place to follow their curiosity.
Some pages are rooted in folklore and legend. Others are lighter, more playful, and inspired by the creative side of fairy culture. Together, they reflect the many ways people connect with fairies — through stories, places, art, gardens, and imagination.
A little more about Mogsy...
Mogsy has a keen interest in the fairy world, especially fairy gardens and the more creative, hands-on side of magical living. She is also a craft artisan who makes ornamental gnomes and other whimsical creations, which makes her a natural fit for carrying this site forward.
That personal love of magical small worlds is part of what shapes the tone of All About Fairies today. The site is not just about definitions and folklore. It is also about keeping a sense of wonder alive.
