DIY Lily Fairy

This once abandoned doll turned beautiful flower fairy is a great addition to any flower-pot! This past Easter, I wanted to come up with a special gift for my daughter who is both hosting an Easter brunch and just happens to be a fan of Lilies and Fairies. Using a silk lily and 5 ” plastic doll from the re-use center, I was able to come up with a fun, easy project that makes a great addition to an Easter flower arrangement!

I deconstructed the lily and stitched two of the smaller petals to the back of a larger one to make the wings. I then took the head and arms from the 5″ doll and attached them with hot glue. The crown is an old piece of plastic flowers, I added jewels for a bit of bling on her fairy crown. I debated adding sparkles to the wings or body but there is something so appealing in its simplicity that I remain undecided.
