We Have House Guests

We have new house guests. Fairy house guests to be clear. At least we think we have fairy house guests, We aren't sure they have moved in just yet. But we did find a fairy door and both girls are convinced that a fairy has moved in. Which, of course, was the whole idea.

Here's the scoop. We bought a door from our local hobby store (the lobby kind) and painted it white. We then glued door trimming around it and glued door furnishings on (also bought at the hobby store). We then used double side tape (of the 20 lb variety) to hold it in place. This is what it looked like in the end:

We then waited until the girls saw it and asked us about it. It took all of 24 hours for them to see it. And let me tell you, they LOVE the idea of a fairy living in our house. We told them that they couldn't pull on the door because fairies sleep during the day and don't like to be disturbed. If we bug them, they might get angry and move out.

Here is D waiting for the fairy.

 And waiting...

 And waiting.

I finally convinced her that it was time for bed, but she is determined to see the fairy. =D


The plan now is to begin decorating the fairy door for holidays and provide convincing evidence that fairies have moved in.

I can't wait!!! Don't worry I'll keep posting with updates.
