    Our tabletop Halloween fairy garden has just the right amount of spookiness. Kids will love putting together this cute Halloween centerpiece!

    Looking for another fun Halloween activity for kids? How about these haunted gingerbread houses or vampire donuts?

    Watch our step by step video!

    The kids and I went to Michael's to pick up an order. We decided to take a look around while we were there, and found the CUTEST little Halloween figures and accessories. They cost a little more than I wanted to pay so we decided to wait. The next week I checked and saw that most of their Halloween decor and supplies were 30% off. That was good enough for us!

    Mac helped me choose what figures to bring home. He especially liked the skeleton dog with dog house. He also wanted a skeleton shark figure, but it went with more of a pirate theme. Cute, but not what we were going for.

    Our Witch's Inn is the perfect size to display on our coffee table. The kids have had fun rearranging the figures. The witch's shoe even lights up and blinks at night. Michael's isn't the only place with darling fairy garden items. We put together fairy gardens in the spring using items from the Dollar Store! Get creative, use items you already have, or make your own! Craft stores sell unpainted ceramic figures during the holidays that you can have the kids paint!

    Your tabletop Halloween fairy garden can be as simple or as fancy as you'd like. We skipped out on adding any live plants to ours this time. That will make it easy to use year after year.
