Fall Fairy Garden House Tutorial - Polymer Clay Pumpkin Fairy House

Due to the popularity of all my fairy garden tutorials and requests for fall polymer clay ideas I've made you an adorable autumn fairy garden house tutorial.

This is one of many DIY mini fairy garden houses, but it's a pumpkin, the perfect fall polymer clay project.

It's built on a glass jar or bottle; I love upcycling to create fairy house bottle art!

There are tuts out there for diy air dry clay fairy house, but this one uses oven bake polymer clay. You could definitely adapt the techniques to use air dry clay to create your autumn fairy house, if you like, but it would have to stay indoors as it would not last in an outdoor fairy garden.
