Fairy or pixie home! Super cute miniture door tutorial! Craft is something thats entertaining and fun, especially when its easy and looks great. I love fairies, mermaids and any fantasy type of creatures. This is a fairy door made from cardboard, old paper, paint, wire, beads, shells and fabric. Its REALLY easy to make and is great for taking cute photos. You can place it on your house like a secret little door or even in your garden on a rock or tree or bush. You could get extra creative and make a whole house, cottage, town or village for fairies, or just place your door on a tree and pretend the tree is the house, use your imagination! I hope you enjoy this craft project, its fun and really easy and can be for all ages!\r

Fairies (Wikipedia information)\r
A fairy (also faery, faerie, fay, fae; euphemistically wee folk, good folk, people of peace, fair folk, etc.)is a type of mythical being or legendary creature, a form of spirit, often described as metaphysical, supernatural or preternatural. Fairies resemble various beings of other mythologies, though even folklore that uses the term fairy offers many definitions. Sometimes the term describes any magical creature, including goblins or gnomes: at other times, the term only describes a specific type of more ethereal creature.\r
Pixies:\r
Pixies (also Pixy, Pixi, Pizkie, Piskies and Pigsies as they are sometimes known in Cornwall) are mythical creatures of folklore, considered to be particularly concentrated in the high moorland areas around Devon and Cornwall,suggesting some Celtic origin for the belief and name. Akin to the Irish and Scottish sidhe, pixies are believed to inhabit ancient underground ancestor sites such as stone circles, barrows, quoits, rounds or standing stones.[3] In traditional regional lore, they are generally benign, mischievous, short of stature and attrively childlike; they are fond of dancing and gather outdoors in huge numbers to dance, or sometimes wrestle, through the night, demonstrating parallels with the Cornish plen-an-gwary and Breton Fest Noz (Cornish: troyl) folk celebrations originating in the medieval period. In modern times they are usually depicted with pointed ears, and often wearing a green outfit and pointed hat. Sometimes their eyes are described as being pointed upwards at the temple ends. These, however, are Victorian Era conventions and not part of the older mythology.In modern use, the term can be synonymous with fairies or sprites, however in folk lore there is a traditional enmity, and even war between the two races.\r
Elves:\r
An elf (plural: elves) is a type of supernatural being in Germanic mythology and folklore Elves are first attested in Old English and Old Norse texts and are prominent in traditional British and Scandinavian folklore. Elves were originally thought of as ambivalent beings with certain magical abilities capable of helping or hindering humans, but in later traditions became increasingly sinister and were believed to afflict humans and livestock in various ways. In early modern folklore they became associated with the fairies of Romance culture. The Romanticist movement revived literary interest in folk beliefs and culture,[4] and elves entered the 20th-century high fantasy genre in the wake of works published by authors such as J. R. R. Tolkien. The Christmas elves of contemporary popular culture are of relatively recent tradition, popularized during the late 19th century in the United States, in publications such as Godeys Ladys Book.
