Zen Fairy Garden :: Fairy Gardens :: 2013

The beautiful Sas, from Daily Colours, is back to share a Zen Fairy Garden she made especially for us! It is the epitome of fairy sweetness! So wonderfully peaceful … I’m sure it’s where fairies go to relax and reconnect with their inner calm.

The base is a glass cake stand filled with shell sand. (You can also create one yourself with a mason jar and a glass dinner plate glued together with a hot glue gun). The center piece is a ‘bonsai’ tree made of a pebble and an upside down tree root.

Using natural materials you can create small objects to play around with in your garden. For example, in this case I used a hot glue gun to attach a sea shell to a walnut shell. The sea shell filled with water is a perfect small bowl in which you can float colorful little flowers.

You can add gem stones like rhinestone or rose quartz to create a special ambiance. You might also like to try adding subtle plant details, like succulents and ornamental grass. The fairy zen garden is perfect in its simplicity and can easily be changed by adding a new gemstone, plant or flower detail. My son loves to discover my secretly added changes.
