Dieter and I totally re-hauled the nature table yesterday as part of our "mama and Dieter" day. It really needed it! We cleared off absolutely everything and he had fun cleaning the top with natural cleaner. Then we went outside and picked these little bouquets. His is the one of the right.
I decided that what the nature table is needing right now is "less is more" approach. I put away several of the items that usually live there and got out some more summery decorations.
Now it is all ready for the boys to add their nature treasures as they find them.

beautiful, simple and perfect!
Hope this isn't too silly a question:
Are those wild poppies in the vase, like the ones that grow in fields? Only whenever I have tried to pick them to put in a vase they wilt straight away.
Debs--there are no silly questions! ;) Actually I don't know what they are, but not wild poppies. Ken bought some packets of seeds at Green Thumb and these little flowers are something from on of those. Maybe "scarlet phlox" (Ken says most likely that's what it is).
absolutely lovely!
Love those red poppies...I can't believe you have them growing in your yard! And that tiny frog is darling.
