Fairy Gardens

this is a simple idea- but they make great centerpieces. I made the two in the photos around Thanksgiving...


Items needed:

-a plate
-dirt
-leaves
-bark/sticks
-rocks or shells
-moss

Start by laying out all of your items-

Second you need to fill your plate up with as much dirt as needed (it should cover the entire plate)

Begin adding leaves and sticks (don't get too elaborate) 

Once you've got an idea on what you want our fairy garden to look like begin adding more decorations (rocks shells, moss, etc.)

  

If you would like to make a more 3D shape all you need to do is find an empty glass bowl and follow the sam procedure above. (I'd suggest filling the bowl 1/2-3/4 of the way full- not all the way)

Here are some pictures of the final product
