C'mon get crafty!

I saw an article on a man who makes "Faerie Houses" for gardens that are just amazing...and I got excited! I took some of recyclables to get the basic shape I wanted and then just started going to town with cardboard and hot glue! I shingled the roofs and built a chimney too! After a trip to AC Moore I had some more additions to make and then I remembered the calendar the Barb got me last year, the Faireyopolis one, well, when last year ended and I had to take it down I couldn't bare the thought of not seeing thos cute little fairies again, so I cut the whole thing up and saved all the pieces in my scrappbooking gear! I was so happy when I thought of those! I added all the fairies on and the butterflys, some moss, and I used my scrapping paper. Oh yeah, I used tin foil in the windows and some cheap ribbon I got at Target's $1 section a million years ago. I basicly just used the stuff I had around. Not too shabby huh? Next time I'll take pics of the taped together rycyclables so you can see the transformation, I just didn't have the forthought or the confidance that the outcome would be worthwhile.

Sorry that pic is up twice I didn't want to rewrite the text though...no TIME! You can see my inspiration at www.sleepyhollowent.com He uses trees and materials that withstand the elements, I wish I could afford one!!! LOL! This was a really fun weekend project.
