7419Seeing your fairy house I think every garden needs one. Clever idea to use felt to give glamorize it.
145196Liz, you have done a great job in repairing and generating a little place for the fairies to live. Great presentation, too.

I think I'm going to start with a seat belt cozy. I found the idea on another site and it rang my chimes... I do dislike how the shoulder harness cuts into my neck. Thank you for responding.

I'm with you Starlizard - I have woollen seat belt covers. I hate the damn thing cutting into my neck too. I am sure you could make them with a padded fabric! Love Chris
P.S. Just love the fairy house, great job and I'm sorry you have some little Arachnids boarding in there!!!!!

Well, I try to give the little 8-leggers some consideration. They do serve a greater purpose by capturing some of the least pleasant vermin... flies, etc. But, if I have my druthers, I'd rather they not invade my space. LOL! Thanks for responding.
168905So Very Pretty! You just gave me an idea for my birdhouse. It's been sitting around for a while too after being thrown off its post by one of my cats. I handpainted all my houses but they're looking pretty bad now from being out in the weather.I will have to keep this in mind. Great job and so very cute too! :o)

Thank you, Trudy. I'm thinking about looking around for cast off bird houses and/or feeders to make at least one more. I'm in the process of making a flower bed out in one of the back corners of our property and I definitely want to put a fairy house there, too. If push comes to shove, I'll make it myself, but 'used' is way more desirable, I think.
1866It's adorable and like how you have it nestled in the tree trunk. Will you be bringing it in for the winters now that it is revamped?

Thank you, capoodle. Yes, I probably will bring it in for the winter months. I'll have to evict the outdoor residents, though. They don't have wings... just 8 legs. LOL!

You know, I read somewhere about doing embroidery on balsa wood. I don't think my little Futura could handle the challenge. Thank you for the compliment!
