Creating a Fairy Garden Out of a Old Cement Flower Urn....

I had flowers planted in this urn. I decided to turn it into a fairy garden.
I left the dirt in the urn, and added pea gravel in the sections where needed.
A close up photo of the flower garden area made from artificial greenery, moss and flowers. I added a homemade pond and placed a seating bench in the garden to complete the scene.

For the small sized fairy house, I used a large rock to give the house height.
I added artificial moss on top of the rock. I added some additional flowers, a bird bath and a hanging basket of flowers.
The final step was adding the fairy house on top of the moss covered rock.

JoAnn Dibeler on Jun 12, 2016I built a log cabin with my 7 yr old grandson out of thin twigs we collected in the woods, with a tiny mailbox. He is now 26 yrs old so as far as I know fairie gardens weren't even on the horizon yet. He has a 6 yr old 1/2-sister and it would be fun to do one with her but she lives 2,000 miles away. . . I have a whole board pinned with ideas on Pinterest and I hope to get down to business soon.
