Hi Debbie!
My fairy garden has greatly expanded since I posted this. I now have an old wheelbarrow that I use in addition to the wagon. They are so much fun and my granddaughters truly believe that the fairies live there and come out at night. It’s the BEST! Have fun!
Come back soon!

[…] Such a sweet wagon garden. This idea caught my eye because we have a little radio flyer wagon like this. We have had so many great memories with our wagon. This would be a fun way to create a new memory. I love this DIY whimsical and similar fairy garden idea within an upcycled little red wagon because you can move it around. You can get some great tips on how to create the perfect little stone path over at Norine's Nest. […]

Hi Janet!
I’m so glad you found me! I love that you and your granddaughter made a fairy garden over the winter. I usually pack mine away every summer and tell my little granddaughter that the “fairies” live inside the tree’s during the winter. However, if I were going to leave them out during the winter in a big barrel I would try to create a “green house” cover using plastic and maybe a tomato cage! Cut a small vent hole on the sides. It’s worth a try right? Hope that helps in some small way! I’d love to see a picture of your fairy garden! They are so much fun!
Thanks so much for stopping by and visiting with me. Hope you have a great week!
Happy Nesting!
Norine

Just found your blog. What do you do with your plants from your fairy garden in the winter? My 3 yr old granddaughter and I created a fairy garden this summer. It has been such fun. I’d like to winter it over but it’s planted in big half whiskey barrel so can’t bring inside. Suggestions?

Hi Stefanie!
I’m SO happy to have a new friend who loves miniature fairy gardens as much as I do! I had another post I wanted to do from this years gardens and didn’t get to it. My collection doubled this past summer. It was so much fun. It’s my favorite thing to do each spring.

If you do this with your girls I’d love to see a photo! Also…enjoy that carrot cake. It’s truly my favorite cake!
Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing with me! You made my day!
Happy Nesting!

Oh Lord I love this idea!!! I just stumbled across your blog today looking for the perfect carrot cake recipe (I will be trying your’s out next week!!), and found this wonderful little craft idea. Like you, I love tiny/miniature EVERYTHING. I’ve made a few fairy themed terrariums in my day, but this idea is far greater than anything i’ve ever done!! I will be trying this out this weekend with my girls–thanks so much for the idea, its magical and cute as ever!!
