I added a fairy house and a fairy that I bought at Hobby Lobby. Also at Hobby Lobby I found a white buck and a bear ornament. I just unscrewed the wire hook and removed the string hanger, then added them to my garden. Some red and white painted plastic mushrooms, and crystals we found in Arkansas were added. Now I'm out of room. I need to expand it and make my garden bigger lol But yes, very relaxing.Karen Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01957744138630214201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-49391441730336815432020-02-13T11:15:02.549-06:002020-02-13T11:15:02.549-06:00I do love tiny things LOL fun post!I do love tiny things LOL fun post!Laura Hunsakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04957412851200915761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-62682650930598887652020-02-13T10:44:04.593-06:002020-02-13T10:44:04.593-06:00Fun post.

(2) Victorian-era dollhouses I'm building, still under construction, a Halloween haunted mansion, still under construction, (sensing a trend here 😂) holiday villages (Halloween, Christmas, Easter) fairy gardens... Plus, I adore Dachshunds. So much for these things being stuff I can control. 😂 I love the artistic side of creating scenes of things I admire and enjoy, often charming home life settings from the time period I adore. My first dollhouse creation was a Cape Cod Victorian. And where's my first book set??? You guessed it! Fun post, Connie. From my tiny little crazy corner of the world. 😁Kathryn Hillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10210913950491846725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7618899325720287751.post-69697563922320078032020-02-13T08:35:15.384-06:002020-02-13T08:35:15.384-06:00I don't have any miniatures.
