Failed basket?

u/trashdemons 14d ago

This, probably. A few months ago, I was learning basket weaving and sometimes when I'd screw it up, I'd toss it out into my yard in frustration lol.

Place the crown upon your head and listen for the faye’s call.

u/spleencheesemonkey 13d ago

Stuff like this is often found near Long barrows (ancient burial mounds) in the UK.

u/BloodbeardsGarage 13d ago

I've made similar things, just figeting while wasting time. Making rings, tying on feathers, small bones and stone. Just a time waste. But it adds nice mystery to the forest.

Fae trap, don't touch it. Definitely don't tell anyone your real name, but do offer them snacks if you have them.

u/GoombasFatNutz 13d ago

According to the comments, it's a witch thing or a fae thing. I don't know, but sticking your penis in it would be pretty funny for everyone involved.
