Easter Fairy Garden Materials
This craft is easily customized. All you need to start is a canister, tin or bucket to begin, a bit of grass or moss to fill the basket and the build the fairy's living space. We used dried flowers, pompoms and doll furniture -- use that as inspiration. Painting is optional, we added this as a craft within a craft.
- Tin, canister or basket
- Grass or moss for filler
- Glue gun
- Sticks
- Accessories for the fairy's house (we suggest shopping in the dollhouse supplies).
Have fun creating a space and then wait for the fairies to arrive. Small toys like LEGOs can also be incorporated. Momtrends Tip: This craft can easily be set up for multiple children. It's perfect for Sunday school, or a brunch where you need kid activities.
