I've had it in mind to make a fairy garden for a while. I wanted it to be small and neat, so I decided to make it in stacked pots. I saw an example of how to stack pots while searching for porch decor. I painted the pots with while chalk spray paint and was going to distress them. Then I decided I liked the look of just the painted pots, which are a bit rustic on their own.
I found the fairy house and the hedgehogs on a teeter-totter a couple of years ago at Dollar Tree. There are some other little hedgehogs on the second tier, although they sort of blend in with the dirt. I used assorted cacti for plants so they will stay small. They also resemble trees and bushes. The ladders I made from twigs in the backyard, using a glue gun to put them together. I hope just fairies and not some creepy-crawly creatures use the ladders!
