Last week was our Fairy Garden class, each participant young and old had fun creating a new fairy habitat. Gates, arbors, gazing pools, resting thyme patches, privacy areas, pathways and walkways were all included in the gardens.
A variety of boxes
and baskets were used and about 4 or 5 plants, all favorites of the wee folk were included.
Of course lots of glitter, sparkles, found objects such as shiny pebbles, acorns, and sea shells were included.
Everyone left with a terrific home, sure to attract the fairies!

ReplyDeleteNow this is just my kind of thing.Perfect.Were ever did you find a class on fairy gardens?
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! This really does look like the perfect activity to do with a granddaughter, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl, my "Grammie Grunt" and I would would take our burdoch leaf umbrellas, a thermos of tea and some cookies and go down into the meadow by a small brook and have tea with the fairies. They were very shy and so we didn't usually see them, but we always left them some cookies on a leaf and sent some cookie bits on a leaf in the brook for the water sprites who lived under the bridge. Grammie was a wonderful grandmother.
