In an attempt to try something new at my craft desk and in the garden, I recently sculpted a few little accessories with a magical end result in mind...
I put together two fairy gardens! This is a project I've been pondering for a while now. Fairy gardening is defined as any space featuring flowers, herbs, shrubs, miniature furniture or facilities to make fairies feel welcome. I'll give you a tour of these little potted wonderlands.
The first fairy garden contains a house made of twig walls and a hand-sculpted mushroom roof. A sign on the entrance announces to fairies, frogs, gnomes, ladybugs, snails, and all other tiny visitors that they are welcome here. A tiny pool offers a drink of water or a quick bath.
The second fairy garden features an acorn house, two tiny mushrooms, a few pebbles to perch on, and a set of glow-in-the-dark string lights to illuminate this pixie party spot. As you can see, I got carried away in this little endeavor. It was fun for me because I adore anything that makes me feel like a care-free little girl again, and these gardens had me wondering, if only for a brief moment, whether it might be possible for fairies to hang out in places like these when nobody was looking...
What gets your imagination going?

I LOVE fairy gardens. :)
I once knew a girl who actually believed in them, which made me back away from her very, very slowly...but building a cute garden in their honor and seriously believing they existed are two different things.
You way is much less weird.
Holly. These are adorable....just like you!
I've always loved your little mushrooms but I ADORE that string of star lights, sooo sweet. You know I love stars right?! :D
My imagination is sparked when I am multitasking with repetitive tasks. That sounds weird, I know. My brain is constantly working, though.
