Faerie Magazine Summer 2018 Review: The Mermaid Issue

Mug from the Mermaidful subscription box (review here) and painted shells from my easy acrylic pouring DIY

I was super happy to dive into this season’s Faerie Magazine! Summer 2018 is dubbed “The Mermaid Issue”, and it delivers with 106 pages of stunning pictures, a wide range of DIY crafts and recipes, interviews and more.

Faerie Magazine is a quarterly publication inspired by all things fantasy. They send the print magazine wrapped to help prevent damage en-route. It has a nice thick cover, vivid bold printing and makes an excellent coffee table magazine.

I loved all the DIY tips in this issue, especially the ocean-inspired natural skincare recipes!

The photo shoots were absolutely stunning as well, both above and below water. Faerie Magazine always features a wide variety of different contributing artists and writers, and I love seeing the different styles and interpretations of the themes.
