DIY Fairy Table or Gazebo

Items Needed:
Twigs
Hand Pruner
Hot Glue Gun w/ Glue Sticks
Items to decorate (optional)

Cut 4 twigs the same size (for a square table/gazebo). Cut 4 legs, this size depends on which you are making. If you are making a table, it’s best to base the size of the legs off the DIY Fairy Twig Chairs, so they can be place together.
You can also have some twigs ready to make the top of the table OR you can glue felt across it … I did both, so if anything was placed on the table it would have some support. You can also use popsicle sticks to make a flatter table top or gazebo top.

Glue the 4 twigs together to create the frame. Glue the extra twigs (or popsicle sticks) across the top of the frame, you choose that option.

Once the glue has set, you turn the frame over & glue on the legs in the corners of the frame. I twirled the leg, so the glue was on all sides, making it stick to both areas in the corner.

Once this is done, you can put a table cloth over the table/gazebo, or deco it in any way you choose.

The pictures shown are of both the table & gazebo. But Embarrassed smile the gazebo was actually created from a mistake I made creating the 1st table. I had let my granddaughter have the DIY Fairy Twig Chairs, so I did not have anything to measure the height of the table. Since it was quite a bit bigger, we make it a gazebo instead. Then went back, and created the table.
