New fascinations

Well, I seem to be fascinated by "little" things lately. My new interests are Faery homes and gardens and Terrariums! Maybe mixing the two would be the ideal thing to do!! I love plants, crazy about them and terrariums have a different feel and look to them compared to the ordinary potted plant. Its like having a little world in your hands.






Here are a few links on making this little terrarium or vivariums:

Faery homes and gardens remind me of the little doll houses we had growing up, except that these are made from living things, ie: plants, earth, rocks etc... Incorporating them with a terrarium seems like a good project for little girls to put together, well even us big girls would get a thrill out of it too!

Here are some sites I've found on faery gardens:
