Fairy Garden ~ Enchanted Guardians Arrive!

by Barb Rosen

The doorbell rang and there they were, a group of the new Dept. 56 Enchanted Guardians had arrived to live in our garden!

Honored to have been chosen to bring their enchanted kingdom to our garden, I was at their service. A busy afternoon was spent gathering materials and setting up domiciles under the tutelage of Alice, Queen Rabbit.

Queen Alice is life-size and very realistic!

Queen Alice chose an unassuming home. Here is her vintage watering can warren lined with soft mosses.

Fiona Fairy, it is said, has the greenest thumb of all! With just a touch of her hand, Alyssums, Pansies and English Daisies popped up from the ground to surround her newly constructed stone home.

An Enchanted Guardians Breakfast!

Please come on over to my blog to see Spike the Magical Hedgehog and Little Squeak The Mouse Fairy and their homes!

On my blog post, you can enter the Dept.56 Sweepstakes to win $500 worth of their products and make yourself an amazing fairy garden! What a great Mother's Day present that would be!
