Show and Tell Friday!
Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
Many of you know how much I love fairies, so when Dawn from ~The Feathered Nest~ shared her fairy garden in a large flower pot, I had to make one, too.
I already had the pot with plants, but I added some new pink Vincas.
Next came a tiny birdbath.
A wheelbarrow and shovel. The fairies love to garden.
A table to sit at and relax.
With a view of the pond.
Which is actually a small mirror!
And tiny flower pots on the stepping stone path.
Thank you for looking at my show and tell! Our friends are getting married today, so we are busy with wedding preparations. I'll be sure to share pictures soon!
Please read the Show and Tell Guidelines for step-by-step instructions on how to participate.
If you would like to join in, please leave your *permalink* below, along with your first name (this makes the list easier to read). If your link has been removed from Mr. Linky, please re-read over the guidelines before re-posting. Have fun!

You have a lovely garden. You add such nice whimsical touches.
Calling all international bloggers! Need help translating something on a vintage kitchen towel. Stop by http://anapronaday.blogspot.com to have a look. Thank you!!
Kelli!! That is the most adorable thing I have ever seen. You did a superb job.
What a precious little fairie garden! I think it is just so quaint and a lovely touch to a garden.
Lovely post...

That is so charming and makes a perfect little world!
Kelli, that is darling!! Now if you could find some cute little fairies to go with. As I also say, you are so talented girl!!!

Darling little fairy garden. It is sooooo cute.
Hope you have a good time at the wedding.
How Sweet! Where did you find such cute little items to put in your Fairy Garden?
Mary Esther and I are so impressed with your fairies gardens. I will just have to show here this tomorrow. I think she wants to make one next spring. Maybe we will find some fairies!
Very very cute! You and Pea love fairy gardens - or faerie, as she says in Ontario.
The miniatures you added are so
cute in the potted garden. I always see this kind of thing when I go
on the annual Garden walk in my
town. The neatest thing I saw this
year were true to size tea cups on a stick, (I thought I couldn't do that
to lovely tea cups), but it was really a stunning effect in the
storybook garden they were displayed in.
Precious! I'll be making one of those when I have things more settled-thanks for the wonderful, easy ideas!
Kelli, I LOVE all the miniatures!! What a fun thing to look at!!
great garden. I hope that you had a good day today! Hugs and Blessing. Mike G.said that.
That is just so adorable. Where did you find those miniatures?
Kelli, that is adorable, I have never heard of making something like that! I really like it and you did a fine job!
Love, Ann
I love miniature settings. Your fairy garden is precious.

Your fairy garden is so cute, Kelli. I would think that most respectable fairies would love to sit for a while there. But will they be wanting cake with their tea? :)

I love that!!! Sooo cute...and *blushing* I thought the little pond WAS water!!! LOL Where did you get all the lil furniture? It's so cute!
Kelli, your fairy garden is adorable. I did something similar with my grandchildren earlier this summer, and we called them wee gardens.
I'm looking forward to seeing the wedding pictures. Have a lovely weekend, and thanks for hosting Show and Tell!
I love this! My daughter would go crazy over something like this. Where did you find all the tiny stuff? Thank you for sharing!

I just want to step through my monitor and into your garden. I can hear your water feature as I'm sitting here. It's so peaceful and so very inviting.
Beautiful!
Cookie
Forgot to leave you a comment! *smacks heads*
This is so precious! I think my mom has a kit of miniatures she bought at a QVC outlet store similar to this. I have an entire garden for gnomes and fairies. I just purchased 'magic mushrooms' like light up at night and change colors. : )
Have a great weekend.

I love your fairy garden...so cute! You are so creative. Dianntha
It is so cute!!!! I love the miniatures! :)
That is the cutest little garden I have ever seen..
That is just the sweetest thing. I am sure the fairies will love it. So many will come they will demand you build another one!
Kelli,
I'm in love with that little table and chair! In fact, I'd like a larger version for myself, LOL! What a cool project. I'm looking forward to doing this with Grace next year. :o)
How adorable, Kelli! You are such a wonderfully creative person. I would love to make something like this, but my thumb is as black as can be, alas! Thanks for sharing!
I love your fairy garden.
Oh my gosh, that is the cutest!! I love miniature things, so this is right up my alley! Can't wait to do it with my daughter!
This is so precious! Grace and I have a faury that sits on a rock in our garden...we KNOW she comes to kife just after dark each night. That is why we installed a Fairy Crossing sign, so all who enter will be watchful.
I think we do need to create something like this for her...you are SO inspiring!
Hugs,
Sue
Ooooh Kelli, you just knew I would love this! lol You know me and my faeries! hehe What a delightful idea and now you've got me already planning for next summer...where do you get your tiny furniture and tools from?? xoxo
OMG I absolutely LOVE this fairy garden! Thanks so much for sharing. It's a GREAT IDEA. I think I will try and do something similar in my own garden. I don't know why I never thought of such a thing. I am very into fairy things.
A very unique and creative, lovely garden, Kelli. I know you will enjoy the wedding.
Your fairy garden is wonderful! I'm sure my daughter would love doing something similar. I'll keep my eyes open for fun touches.
I love how you turn a garden into such a magical place.
Kelli,
Love the pictures of your garden! Your creativity is inpiring.
Have fun at the wedding!

Shelia ;)
You have made a little fairy very happy, this is such fun,
Hugs, Mary
This is charming Kelli. I love the little birdbath!
That's a fine little fairy oasis!!
What a lovely garden !When my daughters were little we always hunted for fairies in our garden. We have always planted flowers we knew the fairies would enjoy!Now my tiny grand daughters look for them among the candytuft and forget me nots!
How sweet, what a magic. Still German as I am I never would have thought of such a little garden. Thanks for sharing. Paula
Love the furniture for the fairy patio. Will have to see if I can do something like this in my DD fairy garden
This is adorable!!!!!
