Hello, I have 2 great nieces and I would love to make them a fairy graden. If you have pics of yours and some advice, please post.

Thank you,
Teresa

It was such fun! Just did it about a month ago.

Beautiful

This seems to be a great project to do with children. I just noticed my dental Soft Pics would make a great picket fence for a fairy garden. Fairy gardens are a good way to help children use their imaginations and think about repurposing and upcycling.

My suggestion would be to collect a lot of small items. If you have a little money give each child a small budget for Goodwill or the Dollar store. No money? Make some twig furniture.

Collect a lot of stuff to work with and you can just sit back and enjoy watching. Or have a three-way competition where everybody wins.

Several years ago a member was making a fairy garden with a little girl and people sent little items from all over the country. It was a lot of fun to watch and a learning experience for the little girl.

I've seen the fairy gardens but I don't think I'm patient enough to create them. I think they're precious. I did create some fairy tea set totems instead though!

I guess this is more of a pixie garden.

The idea is to make a home of sorts from the log and move the current (unfinished) home to a smaller rock to the right and make a bit of a town setting.

A close of the gnome/pixie/frog home. Given the sizes of the "toys" I guess this will have to be a frog home of sorts.

Hey, I think we have a old dish in the storage bldg. Lightbulb moment lol. I love to upcycle. Thks!
