Make a Statement with Pillows in Your Fairy Garden

Miniature gardening is one of the best hobbies to show off your personality, imagination, and ideas, not to mention your green thumb. Whether you like to create holiday themes, expertly decorated scenes, or fairy gardens that recall specific memories, a miniature garden can be chock-full of opportunities to share your personality. One of the easiest ways to present your thoughts and feelings is—surprisingly—through pillows!

Pillows are fairy garden accessories often associated with good memories and feelings. We all remember the pillows from our childhood living room or perhaps have a favorite soft accent in our own homes. Pillows are comfortable, warm, and cozy. They come in countless styles. For the miniature garden, there are options for pillows that match your style. Of course, fairy garden accessories are usually made of resin or other weather-resistant materials, so you do not need to worry about them getting wet in the rain, or about needing to throw the garden fairies' pillowcases in the laundry.

If your miniature garden is already furnished, you can choose little pillows that act as accent pieces for the seating you already have. Some pillows come with fun phrases that are fit for a youthful garden, such as “Fairy Hugs” or “Friends.” Pillows often feature little drawings of fairies, hearts, and stars. If your garden is filled with fairies who love to play and chat with each other, or if you have many young visitors to the fairy garden, these pillows might be just what you are looking for to add a decorative flair.

You can also enhance the miniature garden with phrases that are a little more sophisticated or serious. “Believe” highlights faith, optimism, and a sense that there is more to the fairy garden than we visually see. “Live, Laugh, Love,” and similar phrases are lighthearted, but remind gardeners and visitors about the most important things in life. This popular phrase might already be found in your “real life” home or patio. A matching miniature pillow in the fairy garden could have you “twinning” with your fairies.

You can also find fairy garden accessories that come with both fairy furniture and pillows. Choose an Adirondack-style fairy chair with a pillow that adds a weathered, homey feel to the garden. A few of these pulled into a circle around a fire pit, picnic, or sand volleyball court can make for a comfortable social atmosphere. The included, attached pillow can make a chair “pop” with its color and design. Opt for a miniature accessory with a brightly decorated pillow to bring even more personality to the garden.

Instead of focusing on one miniature pillow at a time, you can even line a few up on a bench, or a corner filled with miniature plants and miniature trees, to make a quiet nook. This look can be had easily with a Fairy Picnic Place, a roofed structure featuring benches and unique resin pillows built right in. Some tiny pillows tell you exactly how you should act in the fairy garden. “Be silly,” “be kind,” and “be honest,” can inspire fairies and visitors to be their best. Do you want to express a message in your miniature garden? If you have a roofed bench or another covered structure, such as a miniature house, tent, or a similar fairy garden accessory, you could try embroidering fairy pillows with unique messages. Your pillows might feature a favorite verse, lyric, or phrase. No matter how you choose to incorporate stunning decor into your fairy garden - pillows will make a statement.
