2019 Fairy Garden Tour

Touring the second year of my fairy garden.  This year due to construction at my home, I had a small strip to work with and couldn't plant any flowers until mid-summer.  I used several fairy houses that I bought from dollar tree and didn't make any fairy houses myself and only used one of the houses I made from last year.

Things got busy and couldn't keep up with maintaining it and everything got overgrown.  Next year I plan on moving the fairy garden village back to the area where I created it in the first year.  I hope this video helps you get inspiration and ideas to create your own fairy garden.

Dollar Tree Fairy Garden Set available

When I started creating my fairy garden last spring/summer, I had missed out on some cute fairy garden items at the Dollar Tree store.  This year, I was keeping my eye out for these items.  Although I think I am too late for items in the store (they are already putting out summer items), their online site has the 25 piece set available again this year.  I placed my order and I am looking forward to adding these to my collection!

2018 Fairy Garden Village Tour

I know I'm quite late on posting this, but better late than never.  I finally made my little fairy garden village in my backyard last summer.  It is made from a combination some painted birdhouses, a DIY house from a seltzer bottle covered with tree bark and pine cone, as well as some dollar tree and Michael's items.  I was very pleased with it.  All the birdhouses, fairies, and Michaels items held up very well to the weather.  I had sprayed them with some clear acrylic to protect them. The house I made from a seltzer bottle fell apart because I had used hot glue so it didn't stand up well to the heat and rain.  Might make a new one next year using waterproof Gorilla Glue or liquid nails per some recommendations.
