Good evening everyone!
Before I get going on my planned post for today, I wanted to share some exciting news with you. So as you know from my last post, I entered a blog challenge with the Kenny K Krafty Krew. Well guess what?? My project got selected by the designers as TOP 3!!! I am SO excited!! I am a HUGE fan of the Kenny K images, so this is a real honour for me :) So check out my shiney new Blog Candy on the side bar! I also get a FREE Kenny K digi!! I'm on Cloud 9!!
So now, back to my regularly scheduled (yet 3 days late) blog post. You guys, I drank beer and made a Fairy Garden on the weekend! My sweet friend Mel surprised me with this kit from Michael's a little while ago, and the weather was FINALLY nice enough for me to get out and do it! J and I went to Canadian Tire where we got the container, soil and a few plants, and then he cracked me a beer and said "Get to it!", and I did!

I bought this at Canadian Tire for $19.99, I love it! |

Rocks in the bottom so I can be cheap with the soil lol |

I used those flat back lass marbles to make the pathways, they are BEAUTIFUL when the sun hits them! |

Had to make sure to get a shot so you can see the fence! |

English Daisy - Galaxy Red |

Osteospermum - Astra Pink (African Daisy) |

I am SO happy with how this turned out! I also planted green onion seeds in the empty spots, so hopefully they will grow up and be edible :) I hope to find lots of goodies to put in here over the summer. Who knows? Maybe the Fairies will bring me something lol
Have YOU made a Fairy Garden? Send me pictures, I'd love to see!
