Ready for fairies

I loved this series of posts over at Kleas about fairy house construction. So when I found a terra cotta pot saucer on my porch (no idea where that came from) I knew a fairy house was in order.

First we gathered some nature (and a penny)

 

Then, with some assistance from me and Grandma, the fairy house and yard were assembled.

 

I think it would have looked better if we'd followed Kleas' instructions more closely but Biscuit has strong opinions on these sorts of things and I try not to interfere too much. This fairy will live in a teepee with a carefully thought out bed.

I did get to build the furniture with hot glue.

 

The "pond" is a sand dollar given to Biscuit by a neighbor after he learned she was collecting nature for a fairy house. So nice! We also found the peanut shell boat on his lawn.

 

Now I'm off to sprinkle a bit of glitter and move the leaf cover off the bark bed so when Biscuit wakes up she'll see that the fairies have visited.
