Fairy Garden Ideas
Fairy Garden Accessories are a must-have to create just the right amount of fairy garden whimsy! Have you made a Fairy Garden yet?
Gnomes, Toadstools and whimsical Fairies create fun little Fairy Gardens. You can make a large outdoor Fairy Garden setting like the one seen here nestled along the fence. The most popular Fairy Gardens are miniature ones created in a variety of containers for fun.
MUST HAVE FAIRY GARDEN DECOR’

- Flowers to attract the butterflies and for the fairies to hide behind
- Accessories of course!
Fairy Garden Accessories
Accessories are the key ingredient to making an enchanting fairy garden. I’m sharing a few here to inspire you to create your own and have fun with it!
Share your Fairy Garden photos with us on our Facebook page in the comments of this video I shared making a couple of simple little whimsical Fairy Garden settings.
This adorable Fairy Wheelbarrow is made with wire, a walnut and a cut twig for the wheel. It’s too cute! By Elowezil.blogspot
Make large Fairy Garden Mushrooms using Vintage Salt and Pepper Shakers. It’s just a matter of paint and imagination plus a trip to the thrift store.
Make your fairies a Fish Hook Chandelier. This shabby chic design is fashioned with a painted fish hook and crafting jewels. It is simply adorable.
These cute little toadstools were created by Crafts Unleashed. Would you believe they are made with doorknobs! I love creativity, don’t you?
There simply must be a door in every fairy garden, don’t you think? Anathemum.blogspot created this ornate fairy door with scraps!
You would never know this fairy garden well is created by recycling a water bottle! My Pinterventures shared the tutorial for this project including her completed Fairy Garden.
Fairy Garden Containers
Kristen created this lush Fairy Garden in an old dresser drawer.

PLANT TIPS FOR THE FAIRY GARDEN
The important thing to consider is location. Plants tend to be particular about sunlight and shade.
- Try to select plants with similar requirements for light and water.
- Select the dwarf versions so they won’t grow too tall for your accessories
- Notice how tall each type of plant will get
I started out doing some research to make my own Fairy Garden. The next thing I know, I’d created a Pinterest board and got lost in it.
See my Fairy Garden Tour which includes a list of the plants I used to create a hidden fairy garden.

These are so cute! I hadn’t heard of a fairy garden. I am swamped this year with the new vegetable garden and adding a deck but this would be a cute addition next year. The kids would love it!
Shirley, this is such a cute post! Now I need a fairy garden!
I just learned about fairy gardens recently and they are so cute. I shared this with my cousin because I know that she likes them too. Thanks for sharing at #AnythingGoes.
Oooooooh, such charming fairy gardens! I want to go visit every one! Unfortunately, I live in an apt. and don’t have any yard… But I would love to have one of my very own.
Melinda, I saw some smaller indoor Fairy Gardens. Go check out the ideas on my Hometalk and Pinterest boards. There are LOTS of ideas.
Oh Shirley I am so glad I am not the only one that loves a good fairy garden. I often had fairies in the garden when my kids were little. Love your post so thanks for sharing on #wednesdayswisdom
Jenn, my hubby and I are making plans for a fun Fairy Garden. I wish there was a local Fairy Garden tour. I have been smitten with the whole idea.
I love this roundup! Thank you so much for including my fairy garden well. I have to make that wheel barrel and chandelier…too too cute! I’m planning on making another garden so this is perfect timing!
Your fairy garden well is fabulous, one of the best DIY fairy garden projects I found. We will probably make one. It may take us all summer to complete our project. It will be fun though.
