Winter Fairy Houses
February 23rd, 2010 | Author: Shannon
One of my favorite summer activities is to build little forts and huts in the nooks and crannies of trees, or built a tipi with sticks and cover it with bark… all for the fairies of the forest.
This winter I decided to build winter fairy houses (cause the fairies need a place to stay all year- right?). So out in the winter-scape of sled tracks and snow angels, we built this lovely little igloo for the fairies of our forest.
After we built this, part of me climbed in to wait out the rest of the winter. I dragged myself out today to write this post… but I might end up back in hibernation.
How are y’all doing out there? I heard it snowed in Texas today- how ’bout that?
This is part of the 30 minute blog challenge of Steady Mom. Post time start to finish 20 minutes. (Although it took me all day to get the 20 minutes of sit down time!)

I’m glad to see you’ve popped your head out for a bit! We’re enjoying a ton of time outdoors here in Los Angeles, though we are planning a trip to the snow soon. We’ll have to try and build a fairy house while we’re there.

Have fun in the snow- it’s raining here, so all out winter wonderland is gone.

How delightful Shannon. We have just finished filming the Butterfly Girls in one of their snow homes. Hope you get some visitors to your little igloo.
Happy Wednesday!

oh I can’t wait to see those pictures…. and next time I think we have a few little fellows who just might visit our winter fairy houses! Thanks for the inspiration!
I’ll dig into the archives of my pictures and find some of our summer fairy houses… how bout mud huts or stick tipis or rock hide outs… nature provides us with all the tools we need.
I love fairy and gnome houses, but hadn’t thought of making them in the snow. You’re right, if you want them to stick around all year they need a place to stay!
