"This is brilliant. It is the funniest costume I have seen in a long time. It would be fairly inexpensive to make too. You could pick up all of the aquarium mats at a dollar store. If you dont want to make a little horse blanket, you could modify a baby onesie, if it will fit your dog."

"My friend went back to college to become a baker and after ten years of friendship it gets harder to come up with present ideas so I am thinking this could be a present Christmas or Birthday this year for it and it has a personal and sentimental touch to it as well"

"My partner and I recently got our first home together and I have taking to making my own jam from the fruit in our garden. Someone suggested giving them as Christmas presents and I think this packaging is PERFECT way to delivery the presents without costing a fortune! Can't wait to try this out!"

"I am not a big wax candle in a birthday cake person I always find more often then not the wax falls on to the cake and you are left picking it out...I never thought there might be an alternative, I will most definitely be trying this on the next birthday on my house!"

"One of my friends is a Harry Potter nut, I think she would go mad for this idea! I can't wait to send this on to her and see if she tries to recreate this for her birthday or at Halloween!! They are really cool looking- will definitely be keeping these in mind when my Nephew goes through his magic phase"

Every time I see something like this I want to make one. I don't have any terra cotta pots, but garage sale season is just ahead, so I'm going to watch for them. If I have to break one, I will! I have a few miniatures around, but will have to look for more.

What a cute idea. I truly never thought I would find a use for my broken terra cotta pots. I should have known I would find it here. Now that you have inspired me, I can get to it. I saw a bunch of miniatures at the thrift shop that I can use. What a great idea, I am so excited now I just have to get started. Thank you so much for sharing this.

These fairy gardens always look wonderful when done by someone else - I have tried and not been pleased with the result but going to try again - hope it turns out even half as appealing as this one
