Equipment

  • Bucket, clay pots, bowl, flower pot, terra cotta pot, or wide mouth pot - Like this one

Ingredients

  • Soil
  • Flowers
  • Small Plants
  • Rocks or floral marbles
  • Fairy House
  • Floral decorations birds, butterflies, mushrooms, etc.
  • Fairy Statues

Instructions

  • Start by making sure there are holes in the bottom of your bowl. If there are no holes, then use a drill and drill two small holes. Next, fill the bucket with soil. Leave some room on the top for the garden decorations. You never want to fill to the very top so that your water doesn't overflow from the top. Plant the flowers around the bucket. I love the idea of a slightly larger one in the back and then flowers around the that, but really it is however the kids want to make it.
