Many of us like to garden, but there is a reason we can't. It may be that it's winter, you live in the city or a place where there isn't adequate space, or there is just not enough time to pursue it.
There is a solution! Here, for the first time, a hybrid of two well known types of gardens is defined. This new garden has elements of a Zen Garden as well as elements from a Fairy Garden. It's a Zen Fairy Garden. And what allows you to have one when gardening isn't normally possible for you is, it's made in miniature form!
This is a delightful, straight forward little book that will tell you what you need to know to create a beautiful miniature Zen Fairy Garden. There are good illustrations to reinforce concepts presented. If you like to be told exactly how to do it, there is also a step by step "how to" section.
This will be a fun project to do! And the garden you create can be for you and your family or a wonderful gift to another garden lover.
The straight forward concepts presented and activities defined are simple enough that both children and seniors could work with them. You can provide light supervision or lead them through the chapters as well as the steps to make a miniature Zen Fairy Garden.
