Fairies and Easter Eggs?
Filed under Art Projects, Collage Sheets, Fairy Garden, Giveaways, Little House Kit, Rhonda Secrist Thomas, Teri Calia
Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. However, you can see the supply list items from Rhonda’s and Teri’s projects that are still available on the new site.
Easter Collage Sheets?! Yes! It is getting to be that time… Spring? It’s early spring here, though I know a lot of you are facing fresh snow. So how about some bunnies and chicks and Easter eggs to brighten your day?
ALL Easter Collage Sheets on sale for 50% off now through Monday night, February 29th! (And a bonus: that new Eggs and Easter Collage Sheet (with a preview shown at left… and also included in today’s Giveaway) is also included in the 50% off Sale!)
Design Team Member Rhonda Thomas has made an enchanting Fairy House from the Little House Kit and the House Oddities Box.
“I created a little home for fairies with this cool House Oddities Box from Alpha Stamps. It’s filled with seven precious house silhouettes that you can decorate as you please.
Did I go into the woods to collect moss? Gosh no! I used Sheet Moss to cover the top of the box (by the way, it is super easy to work with) mixed in with some Leafy Green Underbrush. Added to that is some Flower Soft Sweet Pea that makes it look like teeny flowers are in the greenery and there are also tiny rosebuds. Also on top you’ll see a cute squirrel, mushrooms and rose leaves.
Inside is a gorgeous fairy standing in a beautiful ball room; and there’s also some magical houses that the fairies love to visit.
I loved using the papers from the Provincial Collection to cover the houses with. The colors and designs are so pleasing to the eye, you can’t go wrong with using it. The houses are decorated with fairy and flora images from an assortment of collage sheets that you can find listed on my Supply List.
To raise up the Fairy House, Tiny Wooden Peg Dolls were used to create some “legs”. (That way it can be put onto a fairy truck and moved to a different part of the forest whenever the mood strikes!)“
Visit Rhonda’s blog for more details and photos.
Next up: Design Team Emeritus Teri Calia has come up with hand-made Tiny Pull Toys. (And a flurry of other mini Easter projects, too!) Look at them go with their 4mm and 6mm tiny buttons for wheels; and people — we need to talk about the SUPER DUPER cute animals that are riding on the pull toys.
I almost don’t even want to bring to your attention the Hedgehog because well, you know… I need to make sure that I get mine first. It’s beyond adorable, after all! The little ducks are darling and the rabbits are smartly dressed with their fancy ribbons around their necks.
Visit Teri’s blog for more details and photos AND a tutorial on making some tiny (and super easy) Spring pull toys!

how precious are those minis! I would have to do a mini garden scene Easter egg hunt! you could add some fun mini plastic eggs that have been wrapped in the foil from the pastel Hersey kisses!
Alpha stamps,
I just realized after looking at your site/blog for all these years, lthat I can use your miniatures outside in my fairy gardens planters and change them up for each holiday! Your prices are so much better than the nursery.

I would make an Easter diorama using one of the adorable little shadow boxes that you sell. My imagination would be put to good use along with all your great miniatures.
OMG, great giveaway! I have a couple of wooden bird houses designed like ‘pagotas’ (if that’s the right description) that have open areas and windows that would be perfect for displaying all of the miniature animals and florals in this giveaway. Please, choose me!
I’m enamored with the mini pull toy idea! I think that would be great to try. I think I’d even put wheels on the basket, fill it with a little moss, and maybe one of the flowers. Join them all together a that would be cute.
I have quite a few Easter projects to work on, I’m thinking these would be fun on spoolies.
A wheelbarrow full of hedgehogs? How delightful!
I love tiny animals! I would love to make an Easter diorama for my nephews (who are still young enough to know that it’s wonderful when boys love flowers and animals!).

I love the pull toy idea, those would be fun to make. I’d like to make a little something for my daughter’s fairy garden as well.
I would put the hedgehog in the wagon with the “lettuce” (leaves) and carrots so he could be sneakily munching away on the harvest! The Fairies would be flitting around trying to get him out before he eats all of them!
WHat a fun addition to my Fairy Village! thanks for the chance to win these!

These are so cute! I have always wanted a fairy garden. This would be a great start. And a very spring-y feel.

A farm of hedgehogs with another animal like pigs or cats to take care of them.
These are adorable. I would put a few hedge pigs in a row for a piggy parade!
I think a sweet little field of grass and flowers, with children running during an Easter egg hunt would be adorable. Not my thing, but I would make it for someone else.
