Nighttime Fairy Gardens

When you are passionate about gardening, you cannot help but look around the Internet for new and exciting ideas for your garden. I know I have several files full of veggie gardening, miniature gardening, and landscaping ideas for my entire yard saved on my computer. I enjoy the idea of statement containers, fairy homes, and accessories that can draw the eye. Throughout the day, I am guilty of forwarding links and pictures to my husband and asking him how we can frugally add these new additions to our home. I tend to like items that are more crafty and unique. I recently saw a miniature garden housed in a little red wagon in the front of someone’s yard in my neighborhood. It was a scene played up with fairy cottages and gnome doors surrounding the wagon. The garden itself was silly and playful and upon closer inspection, the wagon being the container really drew your eye from a distance.

Remember that your whole garden should be unique and fun, but you definitely want to define the separate spaces. I like to have an area where I keep my vegetable garden where the plants are protected from wildlife, since we are so near a state park. Sometimes it feels like our garden is a just a feeder for the local wildlife. The area of our yard that is toward the front of our house is the section that I have dedicated for flower gardens, and my fairy gardens. This area is harder for the hungry deer to savor my plants, since I can place, within my front yard, large containers to hold the miniscapes.

The idea of the red wagon made me think that it would be cool to have an eye catching miniature garden for the nighttime. I always like different containers, but I definitely wanted something that in the early evening hours captures a passerby’s attention and also manages to dress up our yard.

As I started researching around the Internet for nighttime mini gardening ideas, I saw glow-in-the-dark painted glass balls, Edison bulb light strings, and citronella torches. All of these things were awesome, but not exactly what I was looking for since the scale was too large. I wanted something that I could add to my miniature gardens to make them stand out even when the sun is not shining. Since I had some leftover lights from Christmas I decided to see what these small lights would look like in my miniature garden setting. The lights were too large and they looked like a giant glowing blob. That is when it finally came to me - are there fairy gardening accessories from specialty web shops where we could purchase glow in the dark miniature garden accessories such as glowing mini pot stickers or miniature LED string lights? The answer was yes. I even found lights shaped like stars that cast a romantic glow on the fairy garden. My husband starting helping me find fairy garden supplies. In our search of shops and the Internet, we found cottages and fairy gourd houses that light up. Our front yard miniscapes started to glow in the evening hours. Several of my neighbors have already commented, liking the unique and different way to dress up our neighborhood.
