Autumn Fairy Garden

Yes! Autumn is near and I’m soooo ready for it. I seriously have had enough of summer, sun and heat and I’m ready for cooler weather, gorgeous colors, falling leaves and the first visit from Jack Frost 😉

This is my favorite time of year. Not only because of the above mentioned but also because it means Winter Is Coming ( 😀 ) and Halloween is close…..muahahaha. Yes you know how I love Halloween but today it’s not about my beloved spooky holiday but about the tiny houses I told you about in the previous post – all dressed up for fall ❤

I call this decoration for my Autumn Fairy Garden because I like to believe that the tiny creatures would love to live in tiny houses like these:

These are all made from AC Cardstock and gorgeous patterned paper from DCWV Paper Stacks “The Good Wood Stack”, “Pumpkin Spice” and “Fall Basics” and decorated with flowers, pearls and gems from my stash.

Let’s take a closer look at them

First of is the Pumpkin Cottage from SVGCuts:

This delightful little cottage is downsized to 50% and is still pretty easy to assemble. I really love all the details  from the large leaf windows to the tiny flowers on them.

I put a LED candle inside to shine at night and it looks so cozy ❤ Lucky fairy 😉

Next is the Mushroom House – also from SVGCuts:

This one is made in original size but I left out the bottom box.

It’s a closed box – didn’t glue the roof down but it sits on tightly and I don’t plan to use it as other than decoration.

I found a flourish in the Silhouette Design store and used it on the roof along with a transparent moth/butterfly from Tim Holtz.

Lastly is the same Mushroom House but made in 75% of the original:

I decorated it with flowers from my stash and a flourish from the Silhouette Design Store, that I cut into smaller pieces.

I didn’t emboss the door but used AC Woodgrain Patterned Cardstock.

Now I’m done with my first Fall decoration. It’s very easy to move as it’s made on a glass stand. It’s actually a Cheese Bell but due to the roof on the Cottage, the lid doesn’t fit. Bummer….have to place it somewhere the cats can’t knock stuff over 😉

Thanks for joining me today – I hope you enjoyed my little Fairy Garden. I really enjoyed making it but now onto a new project 😀

  1. WOW!!! That is as cute as can be! What a clever way to keep everything safe from the cats! As usual, you’ve chosen great colors, papers, embossing and embellishments to make it very, very special. Thanks for the inspiration, Helle!
