I will be the first to admit that this post has absolutely nothing to do with homesteading, frugality or self sufficient living. It is purely for fun! Yesterday I was bored and browsing on pinterest. I decided I wanted to make a "fairy garden" or in my case a gnome garden since I like the idea of gnomes way better than fairies. So I got out my crafting supplies, some potting soil and ground cover and came up with this beauty. The mini tree even has lights (with a tiny battery pack). I made a tire swing from a tonka truck (sidenote- I was at the thrift shop looking for a cheap truck to jack the tires from, and I was all ready to pay. While I was standing at the register they had a bin of keychains for sale. The lady behind me was browsing through them and found a can of mace. Before I could say what it was, she completely pepper sprayed both me and her on accident. Worst thrift shop trip EVER! I do not recommend being pepper sprayed if you can avoid it...just a hint) Anyways, Everything except the plants and the lights came from used items. For a little bit of whimsy this project was soooo much fun! What do you think?
This is the cutest idea ever! :)
