Faerie Houses

Ever dream of having a faerie to come visit your backyard? well, faerie houses are the way to go. a faerie house is essentially a little house you can make, either out of natural materials like twigs or tree stumps or from old milk cartons or bird houses. after  you get your house, you can decorate it with different thing you find outside, like twigs, leaves, walnut halves, etc. and put a little something special inside to entice faeries to come visit, like sugar or dried cranberries or the like.

there's also a series of children's books by Tracy Kane about fairy houses, great to get the kids involved.. or more involved than they already are.



this site is another good faq for beginners http://www.fairywoodland.com/page.php?Fairy___Fairy_House_FAQs&page=4 I'm not crazy about the majority of the examples of houses they have on the website, but the furniture and other accessories are cute.
