little bit of this... little bit of that









So for these fairy gardens a lot miniature garden items are created to make them seem so realistic! Most websites have a variety of things, white picket fences, gazing balls, shovels, tiny scooters. Some of these things I thought I could get away with making myself! Pictured here is My gazing ball. The "ball" itself is a funky looking BEAD I found at JoAnn Fabrics..the platform the ball sits on is actually modeling clay, that I also found at JoAnn Fabrics. It came in a little kit, you mold the clay into the shape you want and pop it in the oven to harden. After that I just glued the Bead on top of the clay. (simple huh?) The water hose I made myself, with green wire. It's bendable..looks adorable!
