build a fairy house (read all 2 entries…)
Started.. 7 months ago

:) YAY!! So I started today and built one little fairy house, not very sturdy, but it came out SO much better then I had anticipated!
I used a plastic pudding cup, cut a little door in the side, covered it in clay (I only had pink! Yikes!), and pressed stones and acorn tops into it. That looked ok, but too “fairy beach-house” with the pink peeking out. So I took moss and poked it in all around between the stones. Then I took a semi-thick piece of plastic and stapled it into a cone shape for the roof. I took the extra moss and (don’t laugh) stapled it to the roof. It actually worked really well. The roof just sits on top of the house, which I may have to fix in case it gets really windy. I have never been very good at building things, but I am so happy with my little house! It looks AMAZING. Like the fairies built it themselves. It reminds me a little of the Hobbit’s houses.
My little house is now nestled in some mossy gnarled roots of a tree, overlooking my flower bed. I don’t think I am going to tell anyone about it, it seems like the kind of thing you should just discover.
If I can find a way to get the pictures off my phone I will post some.
Now that I have one, and see how good it came out, I want more! A whole tiny village among my flowers :)
