Talking nature table

i am starting a nature table this spring and i've love to hear about yours and see pics. a mdc mama told me there was some great info her but i can't seem to find it.

i decided i am going to make my summer nature table outside. i am getting an old whiskey barrel, planting some grass, adding a pond, maybe a sunflower and other places for fairies and gnomes to hide. i can't wait!!!

thanks!

btw - i am new here and this is my first post!

My sister and I had babies the same day. Tyler is about 3 inches taller and a good 10 pounds bigger than Maya so it's funny to see them like this. My sister dressed them in matching shirts while I was sleeping one day.

Fairy Village

We're still neck-high in snow here in Maine, so I had to ignore the REAL nature outside my door, forge ahead and set up my spring nature table. Our Nature Table is a large bay window in our living room. Here is a picture of the Fairy Village we created this year (made from the Fairy House kits available on our website). You can see the thick blanket of snow outside, which is in sharp contrast to my hopeful, spring scene. I'm going along with the saying: "If you make it, they will come!" Happy Spring!

we've got a transitional Mother Earth/root children thing going on right now. For some reason I'm a spaz about switching it to spring on the actual first day or spring. Haven't even given it much thought yet...

Kathryn, what's wrong with a little snow I got stuck an extra day in Lisbon last week because of the storm. I forget how different it is in Maine compared to living in CT now.
We too will be doing a fairy village this year but I do a fairy garden every year, even before Maya. It's a sickness really.

I've never really had a 'store' but I am still a member of MiddayFaire.

My website is sorely outdated...like October or November. Right after our baby llama was born, I believe I keep putting off updating because I'm switching hosting.
