        Glad you enjoy it! 🙂 I do have a post on rustic decor (https://www.prudentpennypincher.com/diy-rustic-home-decor-ideas/), but not all the ideas are specifically for apartments. However, it does feature many rustic space saving storage ideas that would be suitable for apartments!

      Love these ideas! My 10 year old granddaughter and I are planning to reserve a corner of my flower bed for an ongoing fairy garden. Can’t wait to try some of your designs. Plus, we are into recycling and what better way to use water and cola bottles?!

She needs to some thing to help her feel better & make her smile again because she can not help she is sick. Please send me an email back to me so I can look for things to us to make with. Any help will be blessing for her while being sick & will make me proud that I helped her feel like smiling again. My email address is grandmawh@gmail.com & thanks in advance for helping making her feel like smiling again.

        Hi there Gramma. You can make your fairycgarden in anything and with anything you chose. It IS your garden after all. Plants and flowers do not have to be real especially if they are going to stay inside. If she does want a easy real plant to take care of in her tiny garden succulents are always a good idea. They need very little watering and not too awful much soil either. Good luck and have fun.

      Wonderful ideas! I’m excited to get started. I’m moving into a tiny house & can’t wait to start on a fairy garden very soon! Your ideas are sensational & easy to do. Thank you so much for helping us get started on an adventure in the land of fairies! I’m 80 yrs. young & had never thought to do this so it’s a learning experience for me. I’m gonna have mine placed in a child’s wheelbarrow so I can move it around from time-to-time. Thanks for all your helpful advice & pics to help us…
