Fairy Cottage Quarter Scale

 This is a photo of my Fairy Cottage. 
It is a quarter scale kit by Suzanne and Andrews Minis.
The landscaping was very time consuming but I loved every minute of it. 
The bird bath had a bird by Mini Gems, Barbara Meyer.
Each paper punched flower was cupped with a stylus.  I used a colored pencil to all some color to the centers. 

The tree trunk is from twisted wire.

Cinderella by the wishing well.

The pond has resin "water" and two swans.

The stones were all made from paperclay.

Have a seat under the tree.

The bird feeder has a tiny cardinal.
Now that the landscaping is done, I am working on the interior furnishings. 
Next Wednesday, I am leaving for the NAME Lexington Kentucky Convention.  I plan to buy more goodies for my houses.
Thank you for visiting my Fairy Cottage.
Mini hugs,
Donna

Landscaping Pickett Hill

Landscaping my Pickett Hill quarter scale house has been challenging but fun.
I learned to make many...many hydrangeas and hollyhocks.
I have also displayed several of my tiny dolls that I purchased from Suzanne and Andrews Miniatures.

This is a picture of the front porch. 

The bird feeder is from Mini Gems, Barbara Meyer.  See the tiny bird on it too.

 

I had to have a garden gnome.  It is from Mini Gems too.

A view of the portico. 

Through the garden arbor. 
 
Working in quarter scale is a challenge.  Maybe that is what I love so much about it. 
The interior of the house is almost finished.  I still have the bathroom fixtures to add.
 
Have a wonderful day!
