The Fairy's Garden

Now that the snow is gone, I'm looking at my yard and thinking it needs some help.

Landscaping. Flower pots. A space for some tomato plants would be nice.

Maybe I should also clear a spot for a "Fairy Garden."

What's a Fairy Garden?

It's a miniature garden complete with tiny houses, tiny pathways, tiny shrubs and tiny fountains populated by tiny gnomes, tiny bunnies and tiny fairies.

A Fairy Garden is necessary, I've learned, in order to keep pesky fairies from messing up your life -- or at least that's what Kathryn Swenson told me.

Swenson started a company called The Fairy Garden that makes all the fairy accessories you might need to create a Fairy Garden in your own backyard.

My article about her was recently released. If you'd like to read it, check out Fairy Tales.

Or you could visit her web site, The Fairy Garden.
