Make a magical garden in a pot!
You don't need a big space to make a special Mary-Mary garden. I made one in amongst the flowers in my 3 pots.
I find you can pick up little bird houses for very little in craft stores or garden stores, or you can paint any box you have lying around.
I 'wallpapered' my box with some origami paper I had left over.
Then I added some shells I'd collected at the beach, strung up some old necklaces for added magic sparkle.
Then I added the Mary-Mary dolls I'd made (see here for instructions) as well as some other figures I'd collected here and there.

A wonderful woman who reviewed Lulu Loves Flowers made an even smaller garden in one planter - one shaped like a stack of books:
And here's another bit of inspiration I've come across recently!
It's more of a fairy village than a garden - but i think you could add a very nice garden in front.
