Cute pixie home

Give your garden gnomes a new home! The basis for this idea is a round old piece of wood. The individual miniature accessories are simply lovingly designed and arranged in this. Learn here how everything can be recreated.

Craft Secret Santa door

The frame of the round Secret Santa door becomes a great stone border by first modeling some texture paste onto the surfaces for a sculptural look.

While the texture paste dries, the door is painted with wood stain. Once dry, the stones of the door frame are painted with two different shades of gray. The door handle and hinges are painted with gold Pearl Pen.

For the perfect entryway, cut 2 pieces of 8 cm long and 1 piece of 6 cm long from an 8 x 8 mm square strip. Glue the pieces together to form steps, fix them in front of the door and paint the steps in gray as well.

Do you need sidewalk tiles for your miniature world?
Coat some branch slices with Krakelur paste. Once dry, the cracks typical of this paste will form on them. Once everything is dry, dab and shade the branch slices with gray paint until a great stone look is created.

Lampion chain

For the lantern chain, individual calyxes of a lily of the valley bouquet were pulled together with a bead each on wire and then tinkered into a string of lights. If it's not "lily of the valley season", alternatively use more small beads to make a miniature string of lights.

Decorate the wooden stump and the miniature world with some moss.

Small decorative miniatures for the big visual impact

For a uniform look, paint all wooden parts such as the bench, bridge, fence and "toilet house" with wood stain.

The bike and the bird house are color-matched with edding 5200 "Permanent Spray" in Precious Mauve. The wire stems of the mushrooms can be easily shortened with a side cutter. They can now simply be stuck into the moss or soil.

To additionally protect all parts from the weather, you can also spray or paint them with clear varnish.
