The winning tinkering idea from Basteline is a great example of a self-designed Fairy Garden. The little houses were modelled, painted and arranged - use this idea as inspiration for your own magic garden.
The small illuminated houses are made from bottles, preserving jars and Acrylic forms. In the first step, place all the bottles, jars and shapes in front of you and roughly sketch on a sheet of paper how the basic shape could be transformed into a house with the help of Modelling clay . Don't be afraid to connect two vessels with each other, to place shapes in unusual combinations. For example, a roof dome can be created from an Acrylic ball . Modelling If you use plasticine to make the individual houses, leave out a few fields as "window openings". Glass lids and "head shapes" of the houses should not be glued firmly, so you can later place a chain of lights in them and illuminate the houses from the inside This is weatherproof, and can be pleasantly formed, filled, cut and more as a smooth Modelling clay . The plasticine concrete is modeled in thin layers gradually on the vessels - this prevents the applied damp concrete from breaking away. Please note that the modelled mass can probably still sag slightly. Let your work dry out. Arrange the finished fairy houses in the garden together with small ladders, additionally modelled wall facades or miniature garden fences. A painted sign can give your Fairy Village its own name
