While in Dubuque I mentioned to my friend that I’d like to place a small fairy garden among my flowers back home. Then, when we were in an antique store, she spotted a miniature porcelain table and chairs set…she wondered if that would work? We continued walking around the shop as I thought about it… and the idea took hold so I purchased the pretty, pink, green and cream porcelain mini-table with matching chairs.
The next day I bought a chubby little fairy/angel holding a cup of tea at a thrift store.
When I arrived home to Minnesota I rescued another lone fairy I had sitting outside (the one a squirrel carried off a few years ago and we found it up in the tree the next summer). I started planning the miniature set design.
I found a spot in the corner of my back garden, under my fragrant, white rose bush, and next to the public sidewalk that goes past our house. I set a trail of glass pebbles to the table and chairs and placed my fairies on two of three chairs. This is a start.
I enjoyed forming this miniature world. My hope is that people will spot the fairy garden and find a bit of whimsey for the moment.
To my satisfaction, through my upstairs window, I have seen a few people discovering it… and that makes me happy.
Beautiful! Perfect!
The glass pebbles are a great addition…
What a gift to your neighbors! Absolutely adorable.
Valerie, this is soooo cute. I love discovering fairy gardens and painted stones with messages. They make me happy. Thank you for bringing joy to those who discover your mini world.
That is such a sweet idea 😊
Such a cute fairy garden!! You did a great job of making such a great setting. Those passing by will smile and have a heart full of joy!
