Great job Sally! That is a lovely terrarium and the fairy really adds to it.

Mrsbonnie ... I love that fairy hanging over your plant stand, guarding your plants!


I guess we have a couple of folks here on this forum who like fairies, huh? I know Kimskreations/Kim collects fairies too. Me, I collect Angel's but love fairies also and have a couple of little fairy statues out in the garden. Mine aren't anything special though, not collectibles like that one of yours Sally. Now I will have to go google Cicely Mary Barker Fairies to see the collection! I love the vivid color in your fairy and the addition of little "Chipper" is really is a nice touch!

I have a terrarium I made about 3 years ago with a couple of plants and a ceramic angel sitting on a rock.

I bought three of the angels on clearance (Avon) and had no clue what I was going to do with them, then decided to put one in a terrarium. I ended up making terrariums for my sister and my niece using artificial plants because they aren't into gardening and any live plants. I just filled the bottom of their jars with white sand and pebbles and placed a mirror in the bottom with the angel sitting on a rock looking into the "water" (mirror.) Let me take mine outside where the light is better and take a picture.

The glass is scratched and dusty but here it is:
