Build Your Own Fairy Garden

Whether it's fairies, gnomes or elves that give your garden that special sparkle, you'll want to encourage them to stay around. How better to do that than to build them a unique, miniature garden of their own? This class will teach you how. The garden shown in this photo can be planted in a container of its own or at the base of an old tree. Nancy Vejlstrup will discuss "fairy houses" and how a walk in the woods can provide you with many of the natural materials needed. It doesn't matter if it's a "Toad Abode" or a cookie factory in a hollow tree, you'll want to add that special magic to your garden this spring.
