July Theme: TALES RETOLD

We are so excited to reveal the July theme for our monthly box and it is… TALES RETOLD!

There are some stories that can be retold time and time again without ever feeling like it’s the same story. We love finding fresh takes on our favourite tales that surprise us in new and magical ways, which is why we’ve dedicated this entire theme to them!

In this box you can expect items inspired by Spin The Dawn, A Court of Thorns and Roses, The Star-Touched Queen, Cinderella is Dead and Heartless. We are thrilled to reveal that this box will include a stunning booksleeve with artwork by the one and only @rosiethorns88.

Our featured book of the month is a story that we loved and draws from “The Wild Swans” and East Asian folklore. This whimsical tale has a princess in exile, a shapeshifting dragon, six enchanted cranes, and a curse that needs to be broken. The FairyLoot exclusive edition will have an UNIQUE COVER, STENCIL & SPRAYED EDGES, ARTWORK ON THE REVERSE OF THE DUST JACKET by @sallteas, FOIL EMBOSSING ON THE CASE by @sallteas and will be SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.

Spots for new subscriptions are currently CLOSED, but you can sign up to the waiting list here. The best way to get a subscription at the moment is to sign up to the waiting list – we invite people whenever more spots become available.

Tell us, what are some of your favourite tales that you would love to see retold?

    2. I do, because I had already pre-ordered it! It is going to be amazing!!!!!

  3. This box will be a treat! ?

  4. My Favorite tale that I would like to see retold with a twist would be Beauty and The Beast. Maybe it’s been done before who knows, but just the idea of the role really reverse in itself. We know a women can love a Beast unconditonally. But can a men love a women with extreme ugliness on the outside to find true beauty within her that she doesn’t know its there as well. ???

  5. I would like to see Aesop’s fables retold, these inspire deep thinking and a period of reflection and make you critically assess your own morality.

  6. I would love to see more Hans Christian Andersen stories retold! I love that you included The Wild Swans retelling as its a great Hans Christian Andersen story!
