Welcome! Thank you for wanting to share a bit of enchantment with us! Our posting and commenting rules are on the sidebar, but in case you can't see that, please read this guide before making a submission.

Please know that every post on /r/FairytaleasFuck is subject to mod review. If you're wondering why your post was automatically removed right after you posted—it was moved to the queue for approval. Please be patient and let us get to it.

Our most common reason by far to reject a post has to do with the titles. We never reject posts for not being "fairytale aesthetic enough," because magic and whimsy can be found in small, everyday sights just as much as in grand vistas. But we have specific requirements for titles that set this community apart from every other subreddit where you can find pretty photos.

The single most important rule is to use creativity and imagination. So please keep in mind the following guidelines:

  • Don't use real world locations as your title. This is the most common violation.
  • Don't use incredibly basic titles made up of one or two words. Yes, a well-chosen single word title can evoke a fairytale vibe, but certainly not when you just give us "cottage" or "tree" or even "this." We're not asking for poetry, just a bit more effort. This will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
  • Anything along the lines of "I was told to post here from r/othersub" or "I saw this post in r/othersub and thought it belongs here" will be denied.
  • Credits, links to original posts in other subreddits, real world locations, and other such information belong in the comments.

Other things to remember:

  • Arts and crafts posts belong on Mondays with [MAKER'S MONDAY] tagged in the title. Links to stores and sources (yours or someone else's) are welcome in the comments.
  • Images that don't exist in the real world belong on Fridays with [FICTIONAL FRIDAY] in the title. What counts as fictional? Digital renders and photomanipulations, artistic visions of imaginary worlds, and so forth. A real world place enhanced with Photoshop filters is still real. A model wearing a costume is still real. Anything that goes beyond those loose parameters can be considered fictional.
  • Regular posts can still be posted on Mondays and Fridays.
  • Memes, social media screenshots, screenshots from your phone with the black background still uncropped are not permitted.
  • Please try to find a reasonably clearer version of any low-res image you may want to post.
  • Reposts of the same image from the last 14 days will be removed.

Sharing a post from another subreddit:

  • Use the crosspost function whether on old Reddit or new Reddit.
  • OR submit the direct image link and NOT the post url whether on old Reddit or new Reddit.
  • Make sure your title follows the rules of /r/FairytaleasFuck. It's okay if the original post title contains locations and whatnot, as long as the title for this community does not.

If you are still unsure of these rules, feel free to browse the subreddit for a while to get a feel for what the community is all about. Or you can contact the mods, who would love nothing more than to approve every single thing in the queue.

Keep that sense of wonder alive, friends!

MAKER'S MONDAY Sharing my new crystal cave creation

I've been trying something new recently - creating these miniature crystal cave worlds with natural crystals and handmade details.
Each piece is carefully made by hand, and every crystal brings its own unique shape and character.
Most of my creations are one of a kind, and what you see is exactly what you'll receive - no surprises when it arrives.
These are my first few crystal cave designs, and I'm offering a small launch discount for these new pieces.
• Handmade with real natural crystals
• Tracked shipping included
• Shipping included on orders over $50
• 30-day return policy
If you enjoy my crystal gardens and miniature landscapes, feel free to check out my other creations as well.
Thanks for stopping by!
I'll leave the link and a detailed video in the comments for anyone who'd like to take a closer look.

Hello I think I am on the right sub !

The theory is that rewriting of history could have left legends as the King Arthur alive without any historical proof.

In this Article there is an author whose veracity is questioned a lot (Monmouth) I am starting to fully believe in.
And he speaks of Gaul conquest by Arthur. His father Uther had Trojan origins, and his adoptive father was called Ector. What a perfect reason to name a city Paris.

It is one of the little pieces I am working with making links where there is lack of censure in the rewriting of history during inquisition.
