I’m mesmerized by the idea of a fairy garden, a place among the flowers and trees designed to attract “fairies and garden gnomes.”
I was surprised to find entire websites dedicated to this pursuit. You can buy hand-carved furniture and tiny fences for your upscale fairy, or you can gather rocks, twigs and leaves and design a starter miniature garden. I like the creative challenge of using items found in nature. I could outfit a beautiful pot or corner with purchased items, but I’ll have more fun creating something from scratch.
Two large boulders and a little patch of dirt are within my sights out back, a lovely place for fairies to take up residence. If you build it, they will come.
