If you all have more then a few fairy gardens where do you display them. I have flower cart in my front yard that I will make a sun friendly garden but am working on a few others that will have to keep out of the elements but still would like to share. Husband is hiding in his den lamenting "where the heck are you going to put them), I'm addicted!!!!!

    In wheelbarrows, on decks, at the base of trees, on a porch (outside or inside) - you can put a fairy garden just about anywhere or make a whole village, Joann! : )

    I have a retaining wall with a few larger tree type plants and lots of shade on it so nothing really grows well there. I have made the entire length of the side of my house on that retaining wall fairy garden. My husband has made bird houses that I use as their abodes and the foliage that's there is great for tucking small fairies and their stuff into....the birds love it as do my few lizards that frequent my yard. I love it and it's a real conversation piece as well.

    I put my leprechaun garden next to the gazebo and the dinosaur garden is in a large bucket right in the middle of the flower bed. You can put them where ever you would put a potted plant - on either side of the garage door, in the corner of the porch, by the mailbox.

      Thanks CINDY. The only yard area I have is in front of my mobile home that faces the West. I'm afraid the sun would harm the accessories and that's exactly where I would like to share with neighbors. Am considering all suggestions.
