    You won't see this one at Trentham, it's in a secret place.

    I don't know where you live, Marc, but if you are anywhere in the middle of England, Trentham Gardens at Stoke on Trent has a fairy trail.

     There is a new one called  Anahi there, only for the summer.

    If you get bored by fairies, the monkey park is open during the summer.

    Is that your hubby's "other woman" fidget? She's gorgeous!

    No, She's at Fantasywire head office, on the drive. We spotted her when we went to fetch the dandelions.

    Hubby has two kits to make 2 more fairies yet, but he hasn't got the time yet. Maybe a winter project.

  • I'm down in Kent but will keep eye out for fairy places when daughter older, only 2 on Tuesday.

    Age 2 is when the fairies move in apparently ;)

    She's a bit young for this but when the tooth fairy came to my friends' son, he left a questionaire asking her to fill in her name, age, where she lived, was it always the same fairy who came or different ones....? etc

    There was even...How much do you weigh ___g? image 

    His poor mother spent ages filling them in because he left one for each fairy. If she'd known she'd have been more careful how she'd answered question 4!!! image

    He's a vet now! image

    Plant pauper, that reminded me of Terry Pratchett's novel Hogfather, where he describes how the tooth fairies have a franchise and get given a pair of pliers in case they can't make change...

    Bonsai-Marc, great job!

  • finished for this year, to add some flowers next year.  my daughter absolutely loves it, was great on her birthday party, she was even knocking on the door i placed on my large apple tree.  

    some of the fairies didnt make it and a few lost wings, cheap rubbish basically
