I will check out my hostas to see if I have any tiny ones left (more and more seem to disappear on me each spring--rot, rabbits, whatever). I had forgotten about hostas and they would be very cute and I did have 6 or 8 miniature ones that I could move. I set my little castle (I think it is about 10 inches high and 12 inches wide) out into the thyme and oregano herbs for this shot. Now that I compare it to the pictures in the various blogs, I think I need to decorate it a little bit!, too. I read in one of the blogs below that thyme is important for the faeiries. Why, exactly, I don't know! I guess there is a lot of garden lore about fairies that I am not too familiar with: I am mostly interested in making something cute for my nieces to enjoy and not into the pagan aspects. Apparently Fairy Gardens are quite the rage in recent years, so I'm posting more links for those who want to get started with their own. http://www.lifescript.com/channels/healthy_living/Life_Tips/... http://www.miniature-gardens.com/fairy-fall-garden.html http://my.gardenguides.com/blogs/fairythyme/tag/Fairy_Garden... |
