Fairy Houses - Moss Fairy House


This moss fairy house is a cosy and safe home 
to all the tiny magical creatures of the moss lands.


It is simply made of a toiletpaper roll base covered with bark and moss. 
You can find the photo-tutorial for the base here.
Once your fairy house is ready, glue it on a slice of birch
to keep the toiletpaper roll dry when you water the moss.


 By adding and changing small decorations like e.g. planters from snail shells
birch branch step stones and tiny ladders,
you can make the moss house an even more enjoyable place to be!
(and to look at from your couch of course! :)

    ps. I have been wondering, do these sweet houses ever fade? Do you ever take them apart and remake them into another idea if the natural materials start to wither?

    1. Sorry for the late link entry Joey! Have spent my days in the garden making small succulent roofs :)
      Next week I will be the first to enter :)

      ps. I only recycle the moss houses when they are withered. I just remove the moss and re-decorate them :)
      But the snail houses and the cork houses don't wither at all because of the used materials like bark and cork. Place indoors they last forever and every now and then I just refresh the moss.

  8. Your Fairy Houses are one more beautyful than the other. Each one is unique and very special on its own. I really like them.
