I loved playing with my mother’s houseplants when I was little. I would pretend they were tiny forests and I would make little hammocks, furniture, dishes etc out of paper, tin foil and tape for my imaginary Thumbelina-sized friends who lived in them. I gave Boo a large pot today with a variety of plants and told her it was a forest for her little fairies……she played with it for hours:
Don’t even get me started on these itty bitty miniature landscapes by Wee Green Spot…I think I have to have one:

What a great idea! My 4 year old is VERY into fairies right now! Everything is Thumbelina or Tinker Bell.

Terrariums have always made my imagination go wild! There is one on etsy with a couple little dinosaurs in it… so sweet.
By the way, no surprise that you made hammocks, furniture, and dishes for your fairies. ha. I bet they were so cute.

The Silver Penny has some fabulous miniatures for fairy play, including a whole kitchen set.

My little girls have a Fairy House under a log outside at my grandma’s house. It’s amazing! They even have a tiny tea set. The fairy’s leave them things and they trade with them back in forth. Also to note my two addictions just combined. I just pinned this! haha

Cute!! I see you found instagram too 🙂 A recent discovery of mine also. Pinterest + Instagram + Adobe Ideas = too many hours spent on apps that could be spent on laundry.

Oh Ashley – I use to do the very same thing! Thank you for reminding me 🙂 I had totally forgot about doing this.
all my best,
