My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me read and review an advanced copy of this book.

I have always liked fairy gardens, so this was a must-read for me. The authors have put together a nice how-to book on creating some nice projects for outside or inside displays. The step-by-step instructions are very thorough and the pictures are very helpful.

This is a wonderful book for anyone who wants to create their own fairy house or display.

I want to thank Netgalley and the author's for gifting me the ebook.
I have always loved fairy gardens. I think the are so cut.
This detailed book is amazing. It has very detailed instructions on how to create all these amazing little things for your garden.
The pictures are amazing and the instructions seem very easy to read.

Over the past few years I’ve started to see little sections in gift shops devoted to accessories for fairy gardens. Although the idea always has intrigued me (and I have some excellent habitat possibilities), I never got into the idea of purchasing fairy house furnishings as you would for a doll house. It just strikes me that fairies would consider those offerings insincere.

So yay! Anna-Marie and Andrew Fahmy have put together a darling little book full of projects made with simple items like twigs and rocks and a few basics from the craft store. The projects range from furnishings to doors to garden paths and even whole houses, and each project includes a step-by-step easy to follow picture tutorial. They’ve also included several pages of inspiring fairy house projects by others.

I really love this book and look forward to starting to collect materials over the winter so I can begin my fairy adventure come spring. Many thanks to Fox Chapel publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this advance reader’s copy.

Making Fairy Garden Accessories: 22 Enchanting Projects for Your Backyard
Craft Fairy Houses, a Gnome Garden, a Swing, a Wishing Well, and More, Plus Learn How to Add Lighting

The photographs complement the text of this book. The introduction has a photograph of an enchanting door with rounded steps leading up to it. The next photograph is a rustic rocking chair with a candlestand and candles and a light post with a woodland style look.
Materials used in making fairy homes and furniture can be both stores bought and found in nature. There are all sorts of things you can find outside that make unique fairy garden accessories. Twigs, acorns, rocks, pinecones all work well in making furniture and accessories, but you can also find things in stores such as craft sticks, unfinished wood slices, balsa sheets and craft wood. Don’t forget the reindeer moss, forest moss and moss mat. You will need glue, glue guns, mod podge, and acrylic spray. Battery operated tea lights come in handy. Dollhouse miniatures can be used. Metal hinges, floral wire, sawtooth hinge and metal stud and post. Be sure to look for miniature flowers, mushrooms, hemp string, gnome and fairy figurines, and wood stain. You will need some crafting tools such as shears, micro tip shears, Xacto knife, needle nose pliers, a small screwdriver, paint brushes, permanent markers, and pen or pencil.
This book show how to paint craft sticks and how to bend them. It also demonstrates how to carve a hole in an unfinished wood slice, how to wrap wire and how to make items water and weather resistant. Covering lights with moss gives them a realistic look. Ladders can be made from twigs, wire and moss.
This book is inspiring. The doors are amazing. While most of these are miniature, I can see where larger doors, approximately 2’ tall could adorn a tree. I remember seeing this done in a local yard. Their fairy garden was beautiful and enchanting. The trees in the yard were decorated with signs and doors.
This book is amazing, and I will be working on a fairy garden this winter so it will be ready for spring.

This is a cute book! It has helpful instructions on making doors, houses, and accessories for fairy gardens. There's some fun ideas and the instructions include helpful pictures and lists of what you need for each project. Overall a nice find for some unique projects.

I received this eARC from NetGalley.

This book has some cute ideas for natural- looking fairy garden paraphernalia to make. They are pretty simple to do, and the instructions are clear, so I could see this being a good project for all ages. I would have preferred for the doors to be functional, but maybe that's just being picky.

Fun and innovative craft book. Helpful illustrations and inspiration, as well as clear lists of which tools to use. The designs warmed my heart and my imagination.

I remember making fairy gardens as a child, so when I saw this book, it brought back a wave of magical nostalgia. This book has crafting techniques, tips on making items water and weather resistant, and more. The authors have captured all of the childhood magic around constructing and building fairy gardens, while introducing more adult-appropriate techniques and tools to elevate the gardens.

I recommend this book for any adults wishing to revisit the magic around fairy gardens as well as families wishing to explore this creativity together. While there are some adult tools used, I do think that there are elements of this book appropriate for all ages!

Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for providing an e-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

It’s nice enough for a weekend full of crafts. A good gift in the springtime and fun and easy for kids with a little help from an adult

This book is great for anyone who enjoys cottage core garden crafts.I had fun reading and learning how to make the projects. The projects were very detailed, well explained on how to execute and very beginner friendly.
