Bluebird Fairies grew out of a set of hand drawn fairies created when I was changing my life. 

Welcome to Bluebird Fairies

Bluebird Fairies began with a set of hand-drawn fairies I made during a time when I was changing my life.

In 2014, at the South End Art Hop in Burlington, something magical happened. The Fairy Cards came together to form an oracle deck. These cards don’t tell the future. They help people slow down, reflect, and connect with what is true right now.

From there, the Fairy Booth was born. At the booth, I offer Fairy Card readings in a playful and meaningful way. People began bringing the decks into their daily lives—using them for reflection, conversation, and support.

Today, Bluebird Fairies is growing in new directions.

I am continuing this work while working with Green Mountain Self-Advocates, where I work with people with disabilities to speak up, make choices, and lead their own lives. This work is a big part of my life.

I am also working on a new project called the Demon Deck. While the Fairy Deck invites light and possibility, the Demon Deck explores the harder parts of being human—the fears, blocks, and voices that hold us back. Both belong. Both help us grow.

Alongside this, I have returned to weaving. For me, weaving is not just a craft—it is a way of living. I am learning how to weave together art, advocacy, work, and daily life into something whole. Bluebird Fairies is part of that ongoing practice.

You can explore Fairy Decks and other creations in the shop, or spend time with the “Fairy of the Day” for a moment of daily inspiration.

You are also invited to read the blog, where I share short reflections and drawings—what I call “earnest little drawings that help you do big things.”

Thank you for being here. I’m glad our paths crossed.

Bluebird Fairies are "Earnest little drawings that help people do BIG THINGS".

"Hi Emily, I found one of your Bluebird Fairy cards in a book that was returned to the Fletcher Free Library." The 'Fairy of Good Wishes Around You.' It warmed my heart."  -Christine

"Dear Emily,
I'm writing from Mexico City . We're visiting our son.  He and his love have a pack of your fairy cards. Every morning they draw and set one up. The day we arrived they had just hung up replacement hummingbird feeder to enhance their bird friends. And the next card they drew was the fairy of bird relationships. They love the practice. 
Gracias por todo. '  -Sharyl

"Feeling so nervous about my house closing today and my dad just bent over to pick up what appeared to be a scrap of paper from my very messy half-packed apartment and turned it over.  It's the 'Fairy of You Can Do it!'   -Robyn

"Taking a fairy card has become somewhat of a ritual in our morning meetings. As teachers in a busy school, with the stress and unpredictability that comes with the territory, this ritual has helped us to center ourselves, find an intention for the day, and have a moment to reflect before diving in to our work. Sharing the cards with each other has also been an awesome moment of connection, bonding, and often times humor. Their range of styles and their playful nature has made it easy for anyone to feel comfortable jumping in, and we have all begun to look forward to seeing which card will guide our day. We love bluebird fairies!"
