Inspired by the coastal pine forest, sand and sea, a fairy house is crafted for the tiniest of folk.

This easy to make fairy house is crafted from seashells and pinecones.

These days, miniature gardening seems to be hitting an all time high. These gardens are easy to maintain, take up little space and can be brought indoors during the off-season. I love combining one-of-a-kind handcrafted items with store bought accessories for the garden. A great place to start when crafting your very own miniature garden is with the house. I was inspired by the sea. So with that in mind, I converted a basic bird house found at the craft store into this sweet little cottage.

Supplies

One pre-made wooden birdhouse
Decorative shell pieces found in the silk floral section of the craft store
One small shell
Weatherproof glue
Pinecones
An air plant
