Fairy Garden Mini Life Hack #2 - Dryer Lint Smoke Stacks!

Dryer Lint Makes A Perfect Smoke Stack!

It’s the finishing touches and details that really make your Fairy Garden stand out.

Batting (pillow stuffing) or dryer lint makes perfcet smoke stacks. Adding some to your chimneys is super easy! Just glue a small piece of batting or lint into the top of your chimney. After it dries you can shape it by tearing, pulling or trimming with scissors.

Watch it “waft” in the breeze!

Thrift Store Find #2 - Fairy Garden Kitchen Stove

Thrift Store Find of the Day!

I scored this miniature plastic pet crate for 25₵!

What did I do with it?

I’m currently working on my Fairy Garden kitchen area. I really needed a stove or oven and decided to transform this into a place for the fairies to make some delicious food. I painted the crate black. I also painted several wooden blocks from the mini knock-off Jenga game I found at the Dollar Store. I used the blocks to make a stove top. A remnant of a swirly wooden piece was perfect as an ornamental stove pipe. The burners were created from two shower curtain grommets and the knobs crafted from a vintage button and two snaps. Four wooden beads from an old bracelet for feet and the fairies are ready to do some baking!
