we collect acorns, pine cones, an assortment of bits of woodland debris and then create the Nativity figures out of them.

Same as we here -- but we do it for the decorating of window seal and window. I have accumulated a serious collection of images captured thru years, but never shared it yet. Each year it is a different look indeed. I believe I will shape a post one day. Not sure which community I should address it though.
