One of my co-workers made this. Isn't it adorable? Co-Worker's Fairy Garden ( photo / image / picture from cherylad's Garden )
What a nice idea. It looks good to me. I like unusual and different things. I think that "adoreable" is just the right word for this little garden.
I think she said there were 2 types of Thyme. And I can't remember the other, but I'm sure it was a herb too. And that "rock" looks so real. I may have to get one of them one of these days.
I thought that the rock wasreal!! What a lovely idea. The planting is all in proportion to the fairy which makes it even more attractive.
Speaking of that rock....how large is it, does it have a hole for planting and where did she get it? I have been wanting one for a long time. Oh, wait, I just saw the quotes around the word rock ... it looks sooooo real!
She got the "rock" at Lowes for $20. It's made of fiberglass or plastic. She said it was painted just solid gray so she made it look more realistic with her own paint job. It's probably around 2 foot in size and yes there's a hole in it for planting. As many times as I've been in Lowes I've never seen one. You bet I'm gonna keep an eye out for it now though!
I will be going to Lowe's either tonight or tomorrow for something I'm sure, I'll have to wander the store looking for one. A weekly trip there has become as routine as grocery store trips.
That is the cutest thing I have ever seen. I have many little thingies that I may use to duplicate, your friends rock and fairy garden, next Spring. I even have a natural large rock that I probably can use. Barb in Pa.
Oh yea.... That's like my gnomes garden around the old oak tree in my front garden...... Mini Hosta are the best...... Barb in Pa.
I found the fake rock at Lowe's this evening. You friend must have gotten it on sale it's $28 here. :'(
