Miss C is right into fairies at the moment. So we decided to make a little fairy garden. The kids love it. They have a look every morning to see if there is any sign of fairy activity. So cute. I think I might get them a little fairy to live there full-time.

It was a great project and we all had fun making it. It’s still a work in progress, but here is what we have made so far.

You can make loads of little pieces furniture yourself. We spent some time collecting little sticks (the kids do that anyway every time we go outside) and we cut them into little pieces and used a hot glue gun (that was my job) to stick them together to create a little chair and table. Very rustic looking but the kids love it…and so do I.

The plants we got from a garden center. They had the cutest little plants, prefect for a fairy garden. We mainly picked succulents, and a little tree from the bonsai section. The moss we picked from our backyard. All you have to do is put some pebbles or little stones in the bottom of the pot, fill the rest up with potting mix and plant your plants and moss and decorate.

Other things you may wish to add to your fairy garden are a little pond, a wishing well, an arbor, a fence, a house… just let your imagination go.
