Faerie Gardens

I'm really interested in planting/creating an enchanting faerie garden to welcome some friends into my backyard, any tips or tricks for creating gardens? Any help would be awesome

Herbs and flowers would be nice i think. Lavender, peppermint, sage, etc. Would lend some great scents to your garden.

Crystals and stones are also nice. If you're not up for the price of real crystals, you cay buy fake sizeable chunks at a fraction of the costs from ebay. Sometimes you cant even tell the difference be careful though, on dry days they could focus sunbeams and start a fire like a magnifying glass.

Water features, bird baths and bird feeders could be cool too. And a little stonehenge/fairy circle, sea shells, little paths made with broken tiles, an incense and offerings corner, the possibilities are endless.

Why not sit and meditate in the garden, and invite them to suggest what they would like. Record any sudden thoughts or images you receive for later consideration :)

I've read that they like Hosta plants.

Hostas' look like ideal places to hide

My faerie door in my garden.

Your intentions and the energy you put into the garden will invite and attracts the right fairies. I had a dream about a fairy that was in my garden....I felt so much love and admiration for the little being. Such a pleasant dream

My dh & I currently live in a studio & have absolutely no yard. I look forward to the time when we have some land & can include a faerie garden. I'll be watching this site for recommendations.
