on 10/27/2007 Some great places to check out are metaphysical stores, and even garden stores.
Amy Brown has a fairy statue set that are for planters, and therefore end up in garden stores!
Find types you like, whether it's darker, like Amy Brown, or really cutesy.
Even stores like Hallmark and ones of that type often have fairy statues, even some made of glass.
