Mason Jar Fairy House

I've always loved Fairies.Am sure even you as a child would have been definitely fascinated by them.As a child, some of my most magical memories involved fairies.There is something magical about them.

And you know what, some folklore has it that if you build a fairy house and leave it in your garden, you might attract a fairy into your place.That's mesmerizing, right????

Even now as a adult, I find stories about them awesome.Also there are a lot of really fun and creative fairy crafts available out there!Here am sharing a fairy house made with a Mason jar and clay.
