2008 LEX Cover

Every time I start the design process of my Fairies, I am plagued with the insecurity of “topping” last year’s collection, as I usually feel that they just can’t get any better. The excitement of the design process seems to enhance the creative process and the end results are on the following pages. As usual, I have to say that THIS years collection is the overall best ever…I hope you love them as much as I do! Please post your comments below, letting me know which are your favorites this year.

    I bought Jingle Bells Fairy at Romancing The Home in Benicia this week! He has brought me such joy for such a sad year for me! I wish I could have gotten there sooner to purchase more! I will be a collector for as many occasions that are possible! Thank you Mark for your gift of giving joy! Hugs!

    I purchased my fairy today at a local GoodWill for $15.99. What a steal and it is the most beautiful find I have ever come across.

    Mark,
    It would be nice, for collectors, if there were a place a product number could be typed in and it would bring up that item and its iformation. So much faster than going page-by-page to find a particular item.

    Lucky you Beverly, with having a ’sneak preview’ at the 2009 Fairies and Elves! I wait with anticipation each year for the new releases. I’m envious you’ve seen them already! :)

    I’ve recently parted with some of my previous years fairies, given some to family and so on…to make room in my display for new ones that always seem to steal my heart away from others, haha.

    A bigger house would solve my problem of not having room for all I love, but that isn’t happening since we’re in our ‘empty nester’ years, and home. :)

    I’m anxiously waiting to see the 2009 Fall and Christmas line…no doubt many will steal my heart & find a place in our home among the many others in my collection.

    God Bless All, Connie :)

    I have seen a sneak preview of the 2009 fairies/elves. Wow, you think it can’t get better and it does! Looking forward to this coming fall!

    I have been newly introduced to your wonderful Fairies. I purchased 3 of the 2008 Christmas collection while visiting relatives in the Seattle, WA area. Much to my happiness I found several retailers in my area of Buffalo, NY that carry your fairies for Christmas and Spring. On line I noticed your Make-A-Wish fairy. Do you know where I might find the 2008 to buy? Looking forward to your 2009 edition.

    Mark,
    A couple of years ago I was given a 7 Swans A Swimming Fairy Ornament by a dear friend. I did not pay it much attention until this Christmas. I recently retired and is truly able to enjoy the finer things of life. I did not register my precious ornament at the time I received it; is it to late to register it?
    Thank you.

    I just received the 12 days of xmas fairy. I need a stand and cannot find one in San Antonio. Please help!

  10. Beverly Sue White Says:

    I love the sophisticated look of my home at Christmas time with all the fairies in wreaths, on walls and on my trees. The colors are so vibrant and cheerful. Keep up the great work and I will be buying for years to come.

    Happy New Year! I got my first fairy. I stumbled across it at one of my favorite stores in Atlanta — Paper Affair — I left it with the salesperson at the counter while I shopped and they had to hide it as other women were trying to take it. As you can probably gather, it was the last one in the store. I couldn’t be more thrilled with my purchase — I LOVE IT! I can’t wait to collect more and to see where your vision takes you next year. Thanks for starting a new holiday tradition for me and my family.

  12. Laura Says:

    Mark, my daughter and granddaughter were at the Nutcracker Market in Houston and saw your beautiful fairies. They have given me some very beautiful Santa Clauses over the years (one taller than my nine-year granddaughter); however, when they saw your fairies at the Market, they bought me “Apple Jack” and I absolutely love him. Hopefully, a new tradition has begun. You are so very talented and thank you for sharing your talent with the rest of us.

    Mark and crew, My sister has been a collector for some time now and I can not keep up with all the Fairies.I know she registers all of them.Is there any way to look them up to see what ones she already has?
    Thank you

  14. Leslie Says:

    I just discovered these beautiful fairies! My granddaughters will be so enchanted.

  15. Ealinor Magbi Says:

    Hi I just want to say that some of these fairies are so cute. I know that there is now a jack frost fairy, but it’s not the first one. Mark made a frost fairy just for Birmingham Ballet. I saw the little Jack Frost charcter in the nutcracker that they do, and he (or she) was so cute last year.
    You should really come see it. My daughter says there will be a new guy doing that part this year, and that he’s as good oh well see for your self

  16. Dayna Anderson Says:

    Dear Mark,
    I first discovered your precious creations in Cody, Wyoming a few years ago and fell in love with their magic. I honor the “big heart” behind them for all the charities you support.
    I was hoping to meet you and collect a few fairies last year in Seattle,but it was cancelled. I will be there this year on Dec 5th! I can’t wait, I think the “Fairy of Miracles” is my favorite because I have seen so many this year and I have so much hope. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

    To Mark Roberts
    Is it posible to buy your Christnas - Magic in Denmark or buy in America and have it sent over here.
    I have the Jingle Bells Fairy from our visit in America September 2008.
    I would like some more.

  18. Iona Arquette Says:

    Wow, they are all so beautiful! My favorite is the 12 days of xmas fairy. I live in Ontario, Canada do you have anyone who carries them over here, even though Detroit is just across the river

  19. where to buy Says:

    i will be in new york from england and would love to know where i could buy your faries. i did buy 2 in san faran so would love to add to them or find a retailer that ships to england

  20. Mark Roberts Says:

    Thanks Connie! We somehow all missed that one. The Twelve Days of Christmas Fairy is one of the most popular this year and we neglected the poor fella. I appreciate your sharp eye. He will be on the website tonite in the 2008 Christmas Fairy section. :)

  21. Connie Emery Says:

    Just curious, how come the 2008 Twelve Days of Christmas Fairy isn’t shown? I saw a picture of him at an online retail store, he’s beautiful! Another of my favorites for 2008!

    Connie :)

  22. Connie Emery Says:

    Wow, tough to choose favorites again this year! I’ve already purchased the large 2008 Peppermint, Whispering Pines, 12 Days, and Applejack! Let it Snow, Confectioners, & Drummer Boy are next! I also love & want to add to my collection the large Snow Owl, Peace On Earth, Bayberry, Christmas in the City, Timberland Woods, Jack Frost!

    Oh, & will need to add the Peacock Jewels to sit beside last yrs Peacock & others I use for my Mardi Gras decor!

    I just want too many, no doubt about it! hahaha

    They’re all beautiful for 2008…as expected they would be! Thanks so much yet again for bringing warm smiles & much more to our homes with your fairies! Life wouldn’t be the same without them!

    Connie Emery :)

    Mark,

    These are spectacular, truly amazing the pictures just don’t do them justice. Keep up the good work!

  24. Peggy King Says:

    Dear Mark Roberts,

    The 2008 Fairies are all Adorable! My favorite is the “Spirit of Christmas Fairy”. This fairy will surely get you in the spirit of Christmas. I started collecting your fairies last fall. I now have a collection of Fall, Spring and Christmas Fairies. I plan to get an Upside down Umbrella Tree to display the fairies all year round, according to the season. I am looking forward to collecting many more of your fairies.

    Thanks Mark Roberts!
