Welcome little summer fairies, make yourselves at home!






A beautiful long week-end with the girls...what to do? I finally got my summer copy of the Living Crafts in the mail and what a beautiful inspiration. An article about creating a fairy garden! So we found some potting soil, went to our favorite little organic store to get some beautiful little flowers (these are my favorite Lobella?) and dug up some moss on the side of the house. An hour later we had a really cozy little heaven for our mysterious friends. Our oldest has been looking for signs of their arrival she is convinced she saw little footprints in the moss. She even left them some clover to munch on in case they were hungry. And the little one, well...she really likes to pull the moss out and touch the flowers with her index finger!
