I actually have no idea what this is! I've never heard the term fairy garden, well I have but I certainly don't think it's what you mean ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ

This is the start of mine but it needs lots more work. If you look carefully there are fairies behind the tree and in front of pic by the large pot.

Lynibis it looks lovely. Love what you are doing to it. I know it's hard work thinking out what to do and wear to put things. I would like to have one but not sure yet if it's in keeping with the farm. ๐Ÿค”

nicolajaynehend they could be farming fairies and you could have some miniature cows, sheep etc.

If you search fairy gardens on Amazon there are some beautiful props.

Mine is a toilet for the neighbours cats (11) hence the state of the grass. I am having it paved after covid but meantime concentrating on the fairies.

nicolajaynehend Yeah, we do clean it up every week.

Not a nice job though.

Because it's poo.

And it smells.

Of poo.

I thinks it's a lovely idea. I bought a few bits for a friend, who has young daughters, from Poundland. (they still have some showing online) Not all the items they sold were weatherproof but there were some cute options. I got a slide, toadstool, wishing well and a cottage. As far as I know the girls have looked after their little kingdom and added to it. I don't think it matters how old you are or if you live on a farm - adapt it and enjoy. Don't forget a string of solar lights.

Hello Everyone, I am resurrecting this chat as I promised long ago to show you the end result when I finally finished my fairy garden.

After endless fence and brickwork painting, laying heavy sacks of slate and buying lots of fairy houses/caravans it is finally finished, though I expect I will be adding to it as I go along.

As you can see, from old pic above, the paving is also done and garden set finally out. It has cost a small fortune but I can now enjoy my garden fully this year, starting with a bbq on sunday! Image Image

Lynibis The garden really does look lovely! You've made a really special area and I'm loving some of the models you've managed to get. Where did you get the wagons/caravans?

Lol, LDs favourite place....Amazon! I did get a couple from our local garden centre though. I think I have about 12 but can't see them all in pics. Most are solar lit and look really pretty after dark, I stand and stare out of window before bed each evening. Thank you sunny101

Lynibis I'm asking for a friend....honestly! ๐Ÿ˜‚ You've made a cracking job of the garden. I am very much into lighting in the garden and sit out until late so it's a big enjoyment for me. I'm also into veg planting this year - went to my local garden centre mid-morning and picked up some very reduced tomato plants that were too good to refuse.......even though I already have 8 different varieties in situ. ๐Ÿ˜ณ (there's always the freezer and sauces)

sunny101 I admire home growers and have grown a few things over the years.

The pics are obviously looking outwards and I will definitely start with tomatoes again next year as I can have several pots by the conservatory doors.

I remember making green tomato chutney with a surfeit one year, it was awful, ended up in the bin!

Hope you have a lovely big crop!

Lynibis I love what you've done with it since it was first shared, especially the water. (blue glass or chippings?)

sunny101 I suppose they are chippings but bigger and I have thrown some junk jewellery pearls in amongst them. It is meant to be a sparkling waterfall ending in a pool around the tree. ๐Ÿ˜‚
