Here is my first attempt at a fairy garden for my grandchildren. Lord knows why it’s gone in sideways as I didn’t photograph it that way.

Everything has been reasonably cheap to produce so far. The house was just £3, the signs and archway and bird bath just £1 each. The moss, that forms the grass, I took from the top of several pots growing Buxus trees, so cost me nothing. The stone was just .90p from a charity shop. So it’s not an expensive hobby, you must have to look at things differently. The slate clippings were from a friends drive, he gave me a small bag of them. I am keeping plastic bottle tops ready for the next one to use as stepping stones. I have to admit I’m becoming a bit obsessed! The grandchildren love looking for things to add and they are always suggesting things as it fires their imagination. Have a go! X

Thank you, I just thought it might brighten up someone’s day. I now have to find some suitable fairies! I have a little white picot fence winging its way to me so can’t wait for that. It’s a work in progress. Lol!

Thank you. I’ve had the stuff here for ages but was nervous to start. Then I read you just have to think about what scene you want and find the bits. Made it a bit easier then. Great fun.
