Ooh, I'd missed this. What wonderful collections. I am completely inspired :-)
I recently moved and returned all our bird nests, rocks, feathers pine cones seeds etc. to the wilderness. However, this means we can start fresh. My son seems to be a walking nature collection I find baskets of leaves rocks and other treasures simply accrue in his wake.
