Use a straight edge to draw a line across the open end of the horseshoe, creating the bottom of the door.

Cut out the door shape with a jigsaw.

Sand the edges and front surface of the plywood until smooth.

Apply the wood stain, then wipe away the excess. Allow it to dry completely.

Apply an outdoor water sealer to the front, back, and edges of the door. Let it dry according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Lay the horseshoe over the door and decorative hinges. Mark the four screw holes through the horseshoe slots.

Drill small pilot holes to help prevent the plywood from splitting.

Secure the horseshoe and decorative hinges to the front of the door with the four small-headed screws.

Fold the smaller section of each hinge around the side of the plywood and fasten it with the included nails.

Use one of the metal loops included with the hasps as the door handle. Mark its location and attach it with the included nails.

Place the finished fairy door against a tree, stump, or wooden fence and decorate the surrounding area to create a small fairy habitat.
