Wish I May, Wish I Might

Reuse a bottle cap to create a wishing well. Glue two skewer pieces into the base of the cap on each side, then cover the sides of the bottle cap in small pebbles. Secure a short piece of twine to another small piece of skewer then wrap the remaining twine around it, letting a small piece hang loose. Attach this piece horizontally to the front of the wishing well posts. May all the fairy wishes come true!

Flickering Fairy Flames

Fairies love s'mores too! Using craft foam, sticks and pebbles, construct a firepit with hot glue. Cut a circle of craft foam, cover it with glue, then top with moss. Glue a circle of pebbles around the perimeter to create the firepit. Add small logs and additional craft foam pieces for some flickering flames.
