Miniature Lace Curtains Tutorial for a Fairy Garden House

Step One: Cut two small strips of lace, longer than the window’s opening.

Step Two: Fold one end over, then thread a small strip of GREEN wire in and out of the fold to simulate the tops of gathered curtains.

Step Three: Bend the edges of the wire into decorative loops, or twist the ends to make the “curtain rod” look more finished.

Step Four: Attach to your fairy home using strong adhesive.

Step Five: Trim the bottom edges of the curtains to the length desired.

Optional: Use a dab of adhesive (on each side of the window frame) as an easy way to keep the lace curtains pulled back from the window.

For the window on the yellow fairy home below, I twisted the loops on the green wire and kept the curtains closed.

These miniature curtains add a sweet and cozy touch to these fairy homes, and I think Mr. Gnome agrees!

    I’ve been collecting what things I can find to make a fairy garden. God answers prayers I didn’t pray for them but I was led to your post on Hometalk which took me to other posts! Can you sent me information or where to buy the things I will need??
    Thank You so much Janet’s Jots

Pet Scribbles is where I share my craft tutorials, home and garden projects, and occasional stories about my cats. I can never have enough pretty craft paints to work with, and I love to make things look time-worn with distressing and aging. Gardening is my therapy!
