Easy DIY Fairy Garden

August 8, 2016 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

Happy Monday! Just a few more Mondays left then it will be back to school for my guys…dread, dread, dreading it!  Although, I am ready for cooler weather, I am not ready for the grind of the school year.  I know a lot of you like the routine of school but I like the easy breezy relaxed feeling of summer…call me lazy!

Over the weekend, we had a few special visitors.  We were thinking of things to do while they were here and I thought it would be fun to make a Fairy Garden with a charming 2 1/2  almost 3-year-old little girl! I have been wanting to do this for a while and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do it and a chance to make some lasting memories!

How to Design an Easy DIY Garden/ Quick and easy project that is super simple and so adorable.

Today we are sharing how to make a Fairy Garden using a copper tub, a few supplies from Michael's Craft Store and and old tree log.

I picked up all the small accessories from Michaels and the plants from a local nursery.  When I first began thinking about making a Fairy Garden, I saw all these great ideas on Facebook and Pinterest. The options really are limitless.  We chose to use an old copper tub that we have had forever and instead of purchasing a Fairy House we chose to use an old log we had from cutting down a pine tree. Originally, we or should I say I had all these grand plans of how I wanted to cut the log and make a pitched roof…then I remember a 2 1/2 year old does not have the attention span to deal with all the planning and then the cutting that it would take to achieve the look I had in my head.  In the end, we went with her design and it turned out fabulous.  Basically, we place the log exactly where she wanted it and then she pointed to where she wanted each plant to be placed.  She placed all of the accessories like the bike, the water fountain, table and chairs, mushrooms, bench and gazing ball! We may have a landscape architect in the making.

It really is a sweet little design.  I have the copper tub at the base of our screened in porch out back leading to the pool.

Adding Charm to an Outdoor Space

This was such a sweet and fun little project.  It also adds a bit of charm to your outdoor space. I hope you enjoyed our little version of the Fairy Garden.
