Paradise: A faery dream

One hundred srnall and large faeries made from organic materials ( branches, birch bark, acorns, leaves, wasps nests etc.) will dance above the heads of visitors suspended on filaments from cables stretched between the trees in a forest garden space. A four posted rustic bed made from 4 trees with a cloud comforterwill invite visitors to lie down and dream of the magic of Paradise. The plantings will create the vision of a magic faery place in the woods. A selection of ferns, shade grasses, moss beds and wild flowers will cover the forest floor. A path wanders through these magical woods bythe bed and a small water pond feature that reflects the faeries above. Nature contains paradise we just need help finding our inner child that remembers that it is right here, right now.
