Thinking ahead for outdoor ideas....fun, easy, simple, and inexpensive for the holidays. It is a bit early...but, I need to collect the moss, branches, cuttings, and things from the forest here. Sometimes an early snow does make foraging difficult. Tramping around in snow and getting moss from the forest floor is not fun.
Today, hubby and I drove about 2-3 miles into the national forest to forage some Chantrelle Mushrooms before they are gone for the year. I found many mushrooms, about 2 gallons or so. I plan to dry these mushrooms, and store them in vintage canning jars. Tomorrow is a good time to start this project.
I collected living green forest moss for the outdoor decorations. I want to use some to make moss balls...trying to figure it out.
