The Fairy House...in a Clock




Again, not exactly a recent project, but I thought I might as well post some pictures. I made this out of an old clock. It was sooooo hard to find something out of which to make a bed, but I finally settled on a matchbox (gotta love those things!) covered with blue velvet, and a pink canopy over the top. It STILL wouldn't quite lay flat, though.
If you look really closely, you can just see the little door at the top, right above the hands.


Here's a better view of the inside, and the entrance in the back.

The oxalis on the right doesn't look happy. It has sent up so new leaves and flowers, though. Her garden is coming along, too :)
I planted wheat grass around the path and behind the house. It filled in the extra space nicely, but then it got rather ambitious and started aiming for world domination, so I cut it back severely.
