Fairy Furniture

An arbor to the fairy garden.

A lovely chair for a fairy.




A fine place for biscuits and tea for the fairies.



A soft and cozy bed for a fairy!




I made this furniture about 15 years ago for my college roommate. It inspired her to create many more pieces. I hope it inspires you too!

  2. Thank you! It is really fun to make and my children and I would set in out on Midsummer's Night with wee little foods like Alpine Strawberries, currants and acorns caps filled with sugar water. We would imagine the fairies having a grand time dancing the night away and enjoying the furniture. They always left gifts of Quartz hearts and stars.

    If you want to make some, start out with a simple design. The best materials to work with are grapevine and a glue gun. If you have any questions for me I'd be willing to answer them and guide you through. Make it an adventure and have fun!

  3. Have you ever thought about creating an ebook or guest authoring on other sites?

    I have a blog based on the same ideas you
    discuss and would love to have you share some stories/information.
    I know my subscribers would enjoy your work. If you're even remotely interested, feel free to send me an email.
