This is probably one of my favorite fairy doors. Handcrafted, one of a kind, by my very talented husband, this is made from a horseshoe found on our property. Living in a farm house that is nearly 200 years old, there have been some incredible finds over the years. This one was magical from the start and now it sits in my kitchen and is a portal for the fairies.

Third floor is the master bedroom which includes two cradles for the twin fairies. |
Fourth floor is for the boys. Bunk beds, a deer skin rug and nifty mushroom shelf adorn. |
This fairy door has an enchanting door that really opens. |
The workshop where all the magic happens. |
Silver Acorn Properties collects wonderful things from walks in the woods and along country roads. |
Hanging all the flowers and milkweeds to dry next to last years fairy village. |
An old TV with VCR to watch the "classics" while we work. |
The small details like this tree stand to hold clothes and the fairy portraits. |
The master bed is so divine I just wish I was three inches tall! |
These boys have all different kinds of balls to play with, even a pokey one! |
Fifth floor star gazing! |
It's difficult to see the logs in the fire and the details on the sofa, but trust me this fairy family has it all. |

An Outfit For Every Occasion
Inspired by my mother's bleeding heart and the lily of the valley in my garden, I decided to make some clothes for the fairies. By far my best material was a snake skin that I have been hanging onto for a couple of years. I need to stop making them because we have another pressing project that is time sensitive. However, I keep finding the perfect items to use. Now, to make an outfit for a boy one fairy. hmmmmm
