With fall quickly approaching, my summer fairy gardening is coming to a close. What better time to look through what has been created this summer than a cold, rainy day such as today? To make the walk down memory lane even more fun, the folks over at Fairygardens.com are holding their annual fairy garden contest, which is a great way for everyone to come together and share their creations over the past summer. It’s sort of a “harvest” of great fairy garden ideas!

Here is my entry #3, a birthday inspired fairy garden I made for my mom. We don’t live as close to each other as we used to, so I made a little “picnic” table where our fairies can  sit together and share a giant birthday cupcake!

The chairs are made from the tops of really expensive beers that my hubby drank… And there is even a miniature card for her.

I made a matching birdhouse and birdbath, I love how the copper roof on the birdhouse looks!

The plants I put in here had a bald patch, so I filled in the area with some little mushrooms!

I was happy with how the garden turned out, and really happy to be able to give it to my mum! Happy Birthday Mom! ♥
