How to Make your Fairy Garden Pop

I unpacked my spring/summer fairies and put the Mark Roberts Christmas fairies  in their tote.   When it's time to put the Christmas fairies out.....I'll do the same thing only in reverse!    It's a never ending circle....lol!

I like to keep my fairy gardens in the sun room,  but I wanted to give it a different look.    So,  I took the fairies and  houses that were in the armoire last summer and put them on the buffet.   

In the photo on the left,  you can see how I set my fairy garden up.....the first time.    I used a silk potted plant in a metal container and a vintage round wooden frame as the focal point.   Then added my fairies and houses.   I stood back and looked at it.....it looked okay,  but it didn't pop!

 In the photo on the right,  you can see how the addition of some color,  fairy lights, and a wreath above the buffet made it POP!   Now that's more like it!    H also stapled some fringe to the buffet to dress it up a little.     

I love the fairy lights that I ordered from Amazon....they weave all thru the garden and you can barely see them!

I don't have a lot of those expensive furniture pieces that I see in the stores ......most of my pieces are yard sale and clearance isle finds.

I haven't found my good luck four leaf clover in the fairy garden yet....but I'm still looking!

This couple has really been "around the block"    You saw them first out in the greenhouse.....last summer they were in the armoire and now they are on the buffet.

You may recognize my gnome and his side kicks from the Christmas fairy garden......

The only thing new in my fairy garden is the pink Cosmos flowers that I picked up at HL over the week end.

The calendar may say January,  but my sun room says SPRING!

I't's supposed to get in the high 60's here in Eastern New Mexico today,

 think I'll just sit in the sun room the rest of the day!
