Craft: Another Fairy House


My daughters have really enjoyed the previous fairy house we made which sits outside in a flower bed. They often bring flowers to decorate it, add moss around the base of it and fill a small bottle cap with water "for the fairy" which they leave on the doorstep. We decided making one more would be a nice addition.



We used an unfinished birdhouse and then gathered fallen bark, sticks and pinecones while on a walk.



Scissors cut pieces of bark.


They attatched pieces like a puzzle while I used the glue gun.




Small rocks were dropped inside to weigh the house down. It's in the flower bed and ready for someone to move in!

I'm loving your blog so far, thanks for all the cool ideas :) We just had almost two hours of playtime outside using just water and her wheelbarrow and various cups and containers. She had a blast, thanks for giving me more creative ideas for play!! keep up the great work :)
