Aunt Laurie's "Home From the Beach" Fairy House

Aunt Laurie lives in North Carolina.

She loves the ocean and the beach.

So when she sent my granddaughters these beachy fairy furniture pieces, we decided to create a 

"Home From the Beach" Fairy House

and dedicate it to her and all the Aunts that 

send thoughtful gifts to their nieces and nephews. 

(and Grand-Nieces too.)

This fairy doesn't sleep in an ordinary Midwest twig bed.....

Her house isn't created to keep out the Midwest snow, but to let in the summer breezes and show off beautiful 

starfish and shells.

Starfish on 3 sides of the house.  Each one is different.

This fairy loves the water and needs a pool and fountain to remind her about the wonderful ocean.

I plan to glue the shiny blue beads into the shell fountain.

Beach glass pebbles form her patio.

Solar powered lights light up the house at night for 

nighttime fairy parties.

( Yes, we know that our Aunt Laurie is quite the hostess and everyone wants to go to her parties!)

Adding solar powered lights to the wooden birdhouse.

We think these Dragon Wing Begonias will be spectacular as 

they grow into beautiful, flowery plants. 
 

So, thanks Aunt Laurie, for sending us a bit of the beach

here in the Midwest.

You are so kind and this fairy house is dedicated to 

YOU.

Smiles,

Deborah and the Girls
