Making one of the tiny ladders.....

Yesterday I painstakingly grouted hundreds of tiny mirror tiles onto the floor of the main entrance to the castle....I wanted to create a sparkle effect!

This is the turret /top of castle.An old coconut and a piece of rusty old metal from one of those plastic coated, wire bathroom storage racks........

This is the main entrance to the castle, I am building up the floors ....it is taking up the whole of my dining table! At the moment it is three and a half feet tall!

I have started on a faerie castle........

The Faerie shoes......

On saturday I had a stall at the local allotment: Elder stubbs. It went very well, the stall was set up beautifully and gave me an idea of which items sold, and how I could imprve on my ideas.Thanks to Rudi (eat your heart out) and Victoria (ABritish faerie) for making it all possible ....

More magic wands.......

Teeny faerie shoes , no bigger than a penny!

During my summer break, I decided I would like to visit Cottingley wood, where I couldn't resist a dead leaf or two! To capture my memory of the place where the faeries were seen, , I filled a jar and labeled it! who says you can't bottle memories?!

I thought it would be fun to make a 'faerie washing line' Here is the finished result!

I loved the idea of making tiny gardens , like bottle gardens but more faerie like! I used moss and alpine plants , and added a toadstool.....these are amazingly easy to keep, and don't take hardly any time to establish.Just spray ith a fine mist every week or two. With the lid on they retain the moisture ...perfect!
