Started creating with tie dye over a decade ago to create unique outfits for me and my friends to wear to Bonnaroo. Since then, I’ve been continuing to dye unique, colorful clothing, outfitting friends & family in my creations. After much encouragement and many compliments, I decided to open a shop and share my designs with everyone. I hope that you find a piece that is as unique as you!

Mule Hollow Farm
I use the fiber which is humanely sheared by myself and my husband to make various things. I have English long wool sheep (mostly Cotswold), angora Goats(mohair), and an alpaca. I process all of fiber by skirting, washing and further processing it. I use a drum carder or combs to get it ready in batts or roving. Sometimes I dye it, other times I love the natural colors. I then wet felt, needle felt or spin it into something usable. I make Christmas ornaments, miniature sheep with locks and alpaca fiber, wall hangings, gloves, cowls and scarves etc. sometimes I blend my wool with other breeds’ wool to make cat caves and table runners.
West Fiber Farms
I want to have control over the raw materials used I my artwork. That involves sourcing and growing wool to spin, dye, and weave into a textile or being able to be picky in where my materials are sourced.
A main focus of my artwork and products is to reintroduce the consumer to what goes into making the textiles they use in their day to day lives. I also want to find the meeting point of sustainability, function, and aesthetics.
Dean & Co - Macrame and More
I started this journey in March 2023 to honor my grandmother and all she shared with me during my childhood. She passed away suddenly in January 2022. She loved fiber art and taught me many techniques and patterns in macrame, crochet, embroidery and sewing. My favorite, macrame! And that is how it began, handmade creations by me, stamped with her name, all made with love. My first market event was in May and I look forward to growing in the months to come!
Mystical Fairy
Hi. My name is Claudia Holt, and I am the face behind MYSTICALFAIRY. I am a momma to one amazing young adult (Walter) and have been married to my incredible hubby(Douglas) for 23 years. We have one puppy (Rex) and live in Knoxville Tn.
My mission is to custom create beautiful handmade and personalized pieces of jewelry that truly tell a story, your story.
I truly believe that God created each and every one of us for a purpose, and when our purpose and our creativity come together we bring honor and glory to our Heavenly Father.
God is so kind and so faithful and He has truly taught me to trust in Him. Everything is a gift from Him and He continually shows me that all things happen in His timing. Whenever I find myself anxious or worried, He simply reminds me to keep my eyes on Him and trust that His grace and timing for Created are sufficient.
The Lord is a good good Father and He always has the best plan for us. It was scary for me to step out and start my own business, but He reminded me and continues to remind me that I am never alone. He is in it with me. He teaches me new things daily, and often times I learn the most when I step out of my comfort zone. He has truly shown me that creating isn’t about being perfect, it is about having a teachable spirit and a grateful heart.
MYSTICALFAIRY was founded on June 1st, 2021

Whether it is a hand painted silk scarf or a yard of eco-printed raw silk, each is unique in color and design.
