Get something special for your home. This small miniature Fairy Hobbit house with moss roof is easy to recreate with our instructions and is an eye-catcher in a sheltered spot in the garden or in the house. There are many things to discover with this hill house: be it the little flower boxes or the chimney, with your imagination and creativity you can add beautiful individual accessories and create it just the way you want it.

This is how the beautiful little house is created:
First build a substructure from the styrofoam egg halves for your little house. To do this, cut the styrofoam pieces into your desired shape with the cutter and fix them with a little hot glue if necessary.

Then prime the Styrofoam surface with green craft paint (used here: Russian green) so that the white colour of the Styrofoam does not shimmer through the moss later.

Treat all wooden parts with the wood stain. On the door, paint the fittings with golden craft paint, on the edge and as steps glue on mosaic stones with craft glue.

Build a dormer with the wooden sticks and cover it with the shingles.

Build a chimney out of mosaic stones.

Now attach everything to the polystyrene shell and then cover it with sheet moss and carefully glue the moss on with hot glue. Make sure you only apply the glue to the moss, otherwise there is a risk of melting holes in the polystyrene due to the high heat of the hot glue.

Now pave the path with natural stone mosaic, place trees and cover the remaining free ground with moss and cut grass mats. Glue some natural stones to the edge of the path.

Put some slab moss in the painted fruit crates and then arrange artificial flowers in them.

Now you can add and arrange more accessories, flowers and miniatures as you like. How about a fence like in our example or cute garden tools?
