You can use what you like, just have fun and dust off your imagination. I’ve seen pinecone tine shingles as well as sticks and twigs atop their little homes. Some houses, like this one, have a mossy roof while others may use flower petals or tree leaves. You can use things you already have on hand as well.įairies love flowers, birds, and all things from nature. You don’t have to spend that much, or you can spend more if that makes you smile! I didn’t use all the flowers, pods and twigs, so I’ll be able to save them for another project. I bought two bags of moss, a couple sprigs of colorful small flowers, some sort of dried pods, some twigs and of course the birdhouse. (This post contains affiliate links.) I’ll admit, I spent about $35.00 at Hobby Lobby shopping for this garden. Start with a wooden birdhouse and use whatever elements make you happy. If you’ve never made a fairy house, they are very easy. Now on with the fairy garden tutorial… Things You’ll Need To Make This Fairy Garden In memory of little three year old Allie.

This is an amazing video and it will melt your heart and remind you that there’s a little magic in all of us. It’s a real life story that took place in Kansas in a little place dubbed Firefly Forest. I also wanted to share an amazing story with you. NOTE: if you prefer to buy a fairy house or fairy garden, be sure to check out all the adorable options on Etsy! That’s when I decided it would be easier (and kinder) to put in a fairy garden where nothing else would thrive. I watered them everyday, but it’s as if the water never made it to the roots. Sun there’s absolutely no shortage of however, so what do you get with dry and hot? That’s right, basically sand.

However, the planter on the left side has an awning above it which keeps it from getting any rain.

In May I planted a ton of flowers in the planter boxes under my windows. In April of 2015 I moved into a studio space.
