Fairy House
Anything tiny in our home becomes a fairy accessory. So, I was not surprised when my daughter was thrilled to see the little wooden "fairy homes" I had brought home for her to decorate--for the fairies to live in, of course! I liked her take on this craft and we spent the afternoon making some pretty fairy houses.
How we did it:
Materials List
- wooden birdhouse
- watercolor paint
- glue
- buttons
- beads
- sequins
- scrapbook paper
-
We collected all sorts of materials that my daughter felt a fairy home must have. Anything pretty will work for this!
-
Emma got to gluing on beads and adding some color with her watercolors. They were coming together very nicely.
-
When finished we set the houses out by a big tree to wait for the fairies. Hopefully we'll see some evidence of fairy dust in the morning!
