Submitted my first Fairy home to Annmarie Sculpture garden for their annual submission and thoroughly enjoyed the process of experimenting with new materials! Things I thought came out well: - horseshoe door (a technique I have done when leading workshops) with working knocker - working swing - popsicle stick interior flooring - tiled patio - painting expanding foam to look like rocks over the plywood base - the ladder coming out very clean with no visible glue thanks to being able to inset the rungs into holes - engraving swirls in stone, definitely something I will repeat - sculpting polymer mushrooms Things I didn't love the end result of or want to explore alternatives for: - covering the base structure in moss made the project a little more expensive and created a busier texture than I was hoping - adding more painted elements for bright spots of color, while I generally gravitate to a more neutral/natural palette I felt like this piece was a little flat in the end from a value perspective - the painted pond area I liked but am curious about adding epoxy in the future for depth/different texture finish - what to put behind stick window frame, here I had some depth and painted a candle glow color inside but wasn't happy with how it read

Hi from the Netherlands! Im new to fairy crafting and really excited to give it a try! I usually crochet. Ill share a rose i made last week☺️ happy crafting everyone!🙌✨️

I followed Helen to this community and am now very excited to see everything I'll find here. Here are a few photos of my little crafting projects. I love sewing little flower fairies and their friends. I also made tissue boxes.

I love to stitch toadstool fairy houses. All hand sewn and embroidered. Tiny mice like to share these little homes with the fairies and they have become the best of friends. I make a lantern to light the way at night. But now I’ve seen all the beautiful creations here, I’m on the hunt to start making some houses for my garden. I’ve got the perfect spot 💚
