I am going to be making little kits to have "snow".. going to be purchasing the "insta-snow" here: http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/product/1262 and making little packs so everyone can have real like snow for thier nature table set up's.. I have been meaning to get this for ages- it is re-usable, but I am going to make several single use little packs for everyone. You can dry it out and re-use or just vacuum it up.
You have a sickness. Are we twins and I didn't know it? Iswear Ihave found my long lost family on this board.
i don't even have a nature table set up in my house! LOL i cannot find a spot in my house to hold one! i really need to get moving on finding something. what are you using?
That instant snow looks relly neat. kenna watched the video on it with me and now she saus she has to have some (nevermind that there is snow outside here, and it is supposed to snow again tonight!)
And I'm roflmao that you don't even have a nature table yet, but you are in all these swaps. See, not you HAVE to make a table just so you have somewhere to house your growing collection , lol !
We have 3. I have my own in my office, that is now not up. I am taking the table out that it used to be on and using that table to make Holden a train table for the holidays. I will be bringing the kitchen table down here for my nature table (of course, we will not have a kitchen table until I can find something ... but one leg is broken anyway and it's not safe enough to have in the kitchen anymore with kids climbing on it!). Kenna has her own in her room. it's spread out all over her dresser top. That's the one I usually post pics of. The one I posted pics of with the Thanksgiving set up is the family nature table, which i s in the living room. It's a train table (too small for our train tracks) with a recessed top and we only put things that can withstand Holden-play on that one.

If it makes you feel any better we don't have a nature tabel either. Kitty will steal things and Duke, our new dog, just ate 10 mushrooms that were set up in a fairy circle this week. When we move in the spring/summer we will set one up where it can be safe.
I don't even have kids that are interested- yet...lol I figure when I start playing they will take over.

Dear Mom and Dad- I may parent differently than you did. This does not mean that I think you did it "wrong." However, it also does not mean I am doing it wrong.
I had so much fun making my little sets for this swap! I hope you all like them!
Everything is made out of sculpey clay. The blue is the water, and is is painted with diamond dust to make it look like it is a bit frozen. The white is the snowy iceburg, and it has white flocking on it to make it look like it is really snowy They are attached. Then there is one penguin and one seal, and I have a ton of those wishing stones, so I will include a few in everyone's set for some ice. There is also a little tiny penguin egg.
Ok..I am going to make snow scene of some type. I have in mind a bare tree or two...on a mat of sorts. Oh I know WHAT I wanna do..its just hard to explain it...LOL There will be other tihngs with it as well..Think I will just make one soon and show you all
how is everyone doing? i made an earth colored mat that i like how it turned out. when i tried to add snow it looked terrible. so - i am now just planning on needle felting white mats with little caves. they look bare so i will try and add something but not sure what else i can make or find.
