    Who is interested in fairy gardens? I am buidling one now with houses made of natural materials - that will survive the weather in Wisconsin. Anyone else have experience?

    No experience, but I am very interested in them. I started a thread last year and we were all supposed to show our fairy houses we made over the winter, I haven't gotten any done yet. I would love to see yours and anyone else who made one. Welcome to the Stew btw.

    Winter just ended in Wisconsin, so I am finally able to begin to complete my garden. The houses are built and waiting for their site to be prepared. Ready in about a month. It is a whole community with houses, pathes, etc. I will post some pics when it is further along!

    Hi Dorothy, welcome to the Stew from north Texas.
    Looking forward to seeing your fairy village. The winter sort of flew by and my fairy house is still in my imagination :'(

    Please post an intro of yourself in the Welcome to GardenStew forum so we can all get to know each other.

    That sounds awesome Dorothy, now don't you dare just disappear and not show us your fairy village. Can't wait to see it.

    Melissa, that's the fun part of this place, anyone with an imagination can play. I have seen some fairy houses that didn't even look really good but I'll bet whoever put them together had fun playing while they did it, and that's what counts.
