Fairy gardens and mermaid gardens have taken over flower beds and front steps everywhere this past year. Now that Halloween is fast approaching (Target already has its decorations on full display!), everyone's giving their mini displays a festive makeover - and we're totally into it.

Think about it: You decorate the outside and inside of your house for the holidays, so why not give your teeny, tiny gardens a festive facelift too? The designs we've seen are filled with the usual miniature houses and chairs, along with the smallest and cutest pumpkins, tombstones and witches brooms we've ever seen.

The blogger behind Life Is a Party, Dannyelle Nicolle-Ramjist, knows these gardens are all about the details. That's why she made little pumpkins out of polymer clay and scattered real leaves that she used a 1.5 cm leaf punch on across the surface. But our favorite detail is the tiny red wagon filled with pumpkins.

Meanwhile, the blogger behind Lush Little Landscapes put her garden in a orange painted pot so that it can serve as a centerpiece for a holiday dinner party. The items on the tiny table can be switched out as needed. Here, you see a full spread of food, but another option is a pumpkin carving station.

If you aren't the DIY type, The Enchanted Acorn shop sells everything you need on Etsy. This kit is only $8 and totally adorable. For a more elaborate kit, you can purchase one for $20. Both come with mini pumpkins and will make you ooh and ahh upon opening.
