Season’s Exchange
After being extremely excited to have found the Season's Round Exchange and signing up, I was completely and utterly railroaded by life and only managed to send off my package to the lovely, patient and understanding Christine this past Tuesday, I wanted to at least post the baggies I sent to her filled with our treasures.
Christine had already sent her package to us on time and we're very much enjoying our newly resurected nature table. I had quite a nice set-up for last winter, but then it just sat there, until I eventually put a silk over the whole scene to hid the disgrace. The Season's Exchange package gave me the incentive I needed to clean it up. Mother Earth even got a new shawl knitted that she will be wearing in a couple of weeks when it is getting much colder.
Packaged so lovely
The little "prezzies" as they are known in our home
The mushroom girl, felted acorns, little pinecones in a locally hand-made bown, antique german "fliegenpilze" (Christine, how did you know I've been dreaming of these?), some beautiful piece of bark with moss and "tree-algea", and the sweetest little needle felted fliegenpilz.
The set up of our nature table.
Do you keep a nature table at your home? Do you let your children play with it?
ein jahreszzeitentisch! ja, das hab ich früher auch gemacht, als die kinder noch kleienr waren. so mit mutter erde und den wurzelkindern. die wir vorher zusammen hergestellt haben.
heute sind es mehr die sachen, die wir draußen finden. kastanien. schöne steine. ein zweig mit blättern.
euch einen schönen canadischen herbst!
wünscht rosa p.
