Indoor Fairy Garden Tutorial by Nichola

It's the first Friday of the month and I have a brand new project and tutorial just for you! This month I'll be sharing how to create your own little indoor fairy garden.


This sweet little cobble stoned garden uses Gypsy Soul's Cottage Base and measures just 9" square. It's a nice size to work on because you can put a lot of detail in that little space, but it's not an overwhelming size to fill or display.


One of the very nice things about this project is that you can absolutely personalize it to make it your own. I've chosen Gypsy Soul's 1:24 scale arbor and Tiny Birdhouse as accessories, but don't let that limit your choices! There are loads of possibilities and you should absolutely make your wee garden to suit your own tastes.


In my example I've used the Cobblestone texture sheet to create the garden path. Again, don't feel limited by my choice. There are loads of interesting texture sheets to choose from, as well as a brick wall sheet that would be ideal.


So, start collecting little garden bits and bobs, teeny flowers and twigs, and let's make an indoor fairy garden!
