Miniature Tree Houses For Plants Is Perfect Home For Fairies

Published 9 years ago

Stop-motion artist Jedediah Corwyn Voltz has been mastering his skills after work by making these miniature tree houses around his houseplants. So far he’s made 25 and has no plan to stop!

Building miniatures for stop motion always leaves me with a huge bin of scrap balsa, basswood, various fabrics, etc. and I found myself making little fantasy constructions out of that stuff during my downtime,” Voltz told our friends at Bored Panda.”

Those little scrap forts led to me building some more serious ones in little diorama settings, and last year I built my first living tree house. Since then, I’ve made almost 25 of them, from tiny watchtowers in secluded forests, to quiet treetop meditation platforms, to giant bustling windmills and waterwheels.

Want one for yourself? Voltz does not sell them online, but the rumor goes that he takes custom orders so get in touch!
