Hello and welcome to Fairy Grandma Gardens! Stay as long as you like and don't hesitate to message me if you have any questions! **I now offer several listings with 2 purchasing Options Fully Assembled OR DIY Kit
(See individual listings for details) However, if there's a garden not listed as DIY and you have your heart set on doing it yourself, MESSAGE ME! I'll gladly sell it as a kit!!
***Any individual miniature garden accessory, container and fairies described in a listing and shown in photos can be substituted for a uniquely personalized fairy garden! FOR EXAMPLE, you may LOVE a listed garden that has a dog in it, but would rather have a cat, or see a different container you like better, or want a boy fairy instead of a girl fairy, etc. DON’T HESITATE to message me to change something even if it's one item. I LOVE personalizing gardens! AND if you don't see something message me, chances are I can find and create for you!

5 out of 5 starsAnother unique, great quality, exceptional details and so FUN holiday themed Fairy Garden. The packaging is perfect, it shipped ahead of schedule and ready for my girls to find a special place for display! I adore this shop and will be back again for an Easter garden. Jackie even painted a dog to match ours, as she was out of black ones. I highly recommend this shop there’s so many gift and decorations to choose from!!

5 out of 5 starsThe packaging on our purchase was excellent, I wish I could say the the same for the people that handle our items during shipping. I took pictures of the broken house base, got in contact with Jackie (she is such a wonderful person to work with) she immediately work with me and sent me a new one. My Granddaughter is delighted with it, and my wife loves what I built to display our Granddaughters first Fairy garden in our home. This 27 piece set is just like what is shown on her site, and like I said before perfect for what we needed.

5 out of 5 starsMy two girls absolutely adore their personalized Valentine's Day Fairy Garden. It was packaged beautifully, it arrived sooner than we anticipated, and the quality and detail along with the custom touches are absolutely amazing! It was so easy to communicate with Jackie, and I'll be back to order a Fairy Garden for every holiday! I just love that it's so unique and I can put it anywhere, as it needs zero attention. It brightens up our kitchen spreading such joy and just the right amount of magic!!

5 out of 5 starsI really enjoyed working with the seller to create a unique fairy gift for my daughter’s teacher. We brainstormed ideas together and the finished product was beautiful! I would share a picture, but I repackaged it so my daughter’s teacher can open it as it was intended, pixie stix and all!! Thank you for crafting such a one-of-a-kind gift!

Frequently asked questions
Can I customize my fairy garden?
For Sure!! please contact me for more information. I will happily create a custom fairy garden with you. Message me through Etsy or email me at: FairyGrandmotherGardens@gmail.com.
Can I buy a garden as a DIY kit and order more than one & why is a DIY Kit the same price as a fully assembled one?
Absolutely! Some gardens are listed as kits with different options and quantities to chose from.
Because I meticulously pack everything (with love), believe it or not, it takes me longer to pack individual pieces than for me to whip up a fully assembled garden, thus I charge the same for fully assembled and DIY kits.
IN ADDITION, I will sell with or without the container, faux plants, flowers and moss. You're the buyer let me know what you want and I'll do my best to make it happen for you!! For this, I CAN ADJUST PRICING and will create a custom listing for you.
Why is the cost of some fairy gardens more than others & how big is each fairy garden?
Each unique Fairy Garden is hand made and priced based on time and materials.
Gardens can measure 6-7 inches tall by 3 inches wide, or 7-9 inches tall by 3-4 inches wide, and most are 9-12 inches tall by 4-6 inches wide. However, please see each individual listing for approximate measurements.
What if something comes detached or breaks when shipped?
If any of the miniatures detach from shipping, you can easily reattach with a hot glue gun, or any clear tacky glue (NOT white that dries clear). Just one drop of glue should reattach any small items.
I gift wrap each garden in a plastic bag secured with a ribbon; depending on a piece/fairy, I will wrap it individually with bubble wrap; I then surround the garden with bubble wrap, foam, popcorn, tissue and attach large fragile stickers on all 4 sides of the box. In most cases I use ALL of these materials. Once the garden is in the hands of the USPS, I have NO control of how it's handled.
If something does break, please contact me and INCLUDE a photo of the damage. Message me through Etsy or email me at: FairyGrandmotherGardens@gmail.com.
Is your delivery date guaranteed? What happens if I receive a damaged package?
NO; however, I CAN guarantee that I'll ship by the estimated processing date listed, and if I can't, I'll expedite the shipping to compensate for failure to ship on time. I CANNOT guarantee what the carrier will do, especially during COVID 19 restrictions so please keep that in mind. Once I drop the order off at USPS, it's out of my hands and can't control that process or control how the package is handled no matter how well it's packaged (see above).
This excludes severely damaged packages, as every package I mail is insured; therefore, if your item is badly damaged & beyond repair, I'll file an insurance claim. I can either refund you in full or send a replacement. If I don't have items in stock, I can offer a substitution.
Does my fairy garden need any maintenance?
No, whether you ordered a DIY kit, or one completely assembled, your unique fairy garden is ready for display upon arrival or ready to assemble. It's made completely of artificial plants, greenery, and flowers.
Can my fairy garden be placed outside? And will the moss dry out?
Yes, ONLY if it's undercovering. Rain will definitely cause damage and it can fade if exposed for long periods of time from direct all day sun or very hot/dry climate.
It’s really hard to pinpoint the typical lifespan of preserved moss. I spray each garden with a solution of glycerin and distilled water, and I recommend a spritz of this same solution if/when you feel the moss is starting to dry out. Natural vegetable glycerin is very inexpensive and can be found online or at your local grocery store such as Whole Foods. Don't use too much glycerin, as it's an oil and may feel wet to the touch and look greasy. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
What glue should I use when purchasing a DIY garden kit?
I will send instructions to help assemble your garden, and you can absolutely contact me for help! However, using a hot glue gun is the best. If not, CLEAR TACKY or clear Gorilla glue works well (not white that dries clear); however, the time it takes for it to dry is at least 24 hours before all pieces are thoroughly secure. Also, you'll have to be patient when using tacky glue and wait a bit for each piece to adhere before moving on and adding another. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO USE A HOT GLUE GUN!!
What if my package is returned by USPS
It’s the responsibility of the buyer to provide a CORRECT shipping address. I purchase labels through Etsy; therefore, the address you submit is auto populated to the label. I DO NOT refund orders that get returned to me because of insufficient or wrong address. Mistakes happen; however, I will be more than happy to reship orders a second time if the buyer pays for shipping again as the USPS will charge me. When shipping complete gardens that are very fragile it does take a toll on them, so PLEASE check your address!!
Delivery Discrepancies
I follow the recommendation of Etsy and the USPS for any package delivery discrepancies.
*I DO NOT reship orders for free that customers report haven't been received when tracking information shows the order was delivered.
**It is the customers responsibility to check with their local post office and carrier as to where the package was delivered per tracking info. The USPS will check the GPS coordinates when the package was scanned to confirm delivery.
***If a package was stolen from the customers home, as the seller I am not responsible for stolen packages. It's recommended to file a police report.
****I will be more than happy to replace an order that was lost or stolen; however, it will be at the cost of the customer.
