Fairy garden

I have 9 of my 14 items done on my "to do" list.  I decided to order some open air plants on-line instead of waiting for Dale's pups to get big enough to fall off and WOW! am I glad that I did.  I ordered this set from Hinderland Trading: http://www.amazon.com/Hinterland-Trading-Plant-Collectors-Edition/dp/B00N78GYBG/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1420060423&sr=8-5&keywords=hinterland+trading
Fairy Garden
I received several kinds of plants that Dale does not have.  So between the two of us, we will have a nice variety.  They sent a couple extra plants.  I would guess just in case some of these don't make it.  I was ecstatic to see the height, breadth and texture varieties. 
Fairy Garden Stream
Here is the close up of stream that runs through the fairy garden.  Can you see the frog, snail and mushrooms that are keeping the fairy company in her garden?  I get so excited as I look across the living room and see these beautiful flowers adding dimension to the fairy garden.
Fairy Garden House
What makes a better Fairy House than a bird house gourd?  Can you see her table inside?  I lit it up with a small flashlight.  The chairs are sitting just outside the door.  I had so much fun putting this together and adding the open air flowers.  Can you believe that it stared with the top of an old toilet tank?  I need to wait for my next inspiration.  These flowers will eventually bloom and have pups of their own.  Then I will need to create another one.  I will probably give it away and make someone else's day happy too.
Open Air Plants in Terrarium
Dale's boss was looking at his open air plants. She mentioned that she would like some for the bathroom.  So we purchased this small terrarium that can hang in the bathroom and dressed it up with two small plants.  It is such a blessing to bless others with a little bit of sunshine!
