Garden-style brick-and-mortar shops are not that plentiful-there are many places online to purchase items-but what I did find, about ninety minutes from my house, was a delightful garden shop owned by Beverly Turner, who teaches fairy gardening seminars.
When I got home, I immediately went online to search for a fairy garden shop near me. By creating a fairy garden, I believe-as does the protagonist in my Fairy Garden Mystery series-that you invite magic to enter your life.Īnyway, back to the day I went to the fair. Many of my gardens (I’ve become slightly obsessed-I’ve even built a fairy town in the nook outside my office!) have themes about reading and enjoying books. Add a sign to anchor the story if you like, and voila. Find a pot you like, add some plants-in my Los Angeles home, I’m big on succulents-and then create a story with fairy figurines and environmental pieces like swings, slides, houses, and more. The beauty about fairy gardening is it’s all about the story. If you don’t know what a fairy garden is, think of it like doll-housing for the garden. There were twinkling lights and pretty plants and the most adorable fairy figurines in each garden. However, fairy gardening was right up my alley.
I’m not a crafty person-I can sew and bake and color inside the lines-but until now, I had rarely used a glue gun, so designing adorable cards or making jewelry or furniture were out.
