This is so cute. I've been really into minis a lot lately, but this one takes the cake. I'm gonna share this with my friend Kristina since she loves deer so much. Additionally, I'm thinking this could be turned into a "graveyard scene." I saw a tutorial for one of those using a gourd on this site a few weeks ago. I can't believe it didn't occur to me to just use a mason jar. I have a ton of empty ones lying around the house. Now, I just have to go acquire the mini skeletons and tombstones. Brilliant!

I am kinda obsessed right now with miniature fairy scene crafting. If I were planning a girl's night in, this would be a great project to work on. This fairy garden terrarium is a little different than some of the other ones out there because this one utilizes craft sticks that you paint yourself and trim it to fit the jar. It creates the door for the fairies to welcome you in. I think it's kinda neat!

I like anything using Mason Jars. The Fairy Garden Terrarium is the most adorable use for a jar I've seen yet. I know I'll have one and some of my friends, too.

My best friend and I are planning a "fairy garden" day, and I think this project has inspired me the most - I love the little deer and bright red mushrooms!
