Once you start making fairy
furniture...

Getting Started

This miniature furniture adds a charming country look to any place it is displayed.

...you might find it difficult...

• 12 reasonably straight twigs (under 1 foot long) of varying widths to form the seat frame and legs
• Curling or twisted twigs for decorating a chair back
• Small dried flowers, such as pansies, hydrangeas, or creeping zinnias
• Lichen, dried
• Tweezers
• Bypass clippers
• Hot-glue gun and hot-glue sticks

...to stop!

• Twigs should be dry.
• Don't use green wood; it shrinks and the bark comes loose, which will cause your furniture to collapse.
• Look for wood with notches; other branches and flowers will fit naturally in the grooves.
• The thicker the twigs, the easier it will be to make the chair.
• Use sharp clippers for accurate cutting and to prevent wood from crushing.
• Always make sure glue has dried before moving on to the next step.
