Wow. That's just amazing workmanship. Did you make the little bricks yourself in that foam mold?
I can't wait to see it finished.

Wow that's looking fantastic! It looks so fiddly, but you're doing a great job with it. I love the granite, it has such a gorgeous finish.

Thank you Becky! I'm sure it seem's alittle over the top for just being a fairy garden,But it's more me saying thank you to my wife for all she has done for me :)

Oh wow that's so pretty! I can only imagine the sheer amount of hours it's taken so far and how much more it'll be until it's done. The attention to detail is astounding. Keep it up!
