\"Herbststamm1\"<\/a>We enjoyed the October sunshine and made a long walk through the woods of Ratingen<\/a> collecting things the first autumn winds had blown down. With these you can create the most wonderful\u00a0 in- and outdoor decoration. Last winter I organized a trunk already cut in sections about 10 inches high at our local provider of timber for fireplaces. In a rather dark corner of our garden our lawn is mostly penetrated by moss. I carefully took it off, removed the remaining soil and pressed it on top of my little trunk. In the middle I shuffled a little hole for a tea light glass to find safe standing. Some cones and a rose hip found on our way are easily pushed into the moss. Around the trunk I crossed a felt ribbon (2 inches wide) which is fixed with two satin ties holding a wooden heart. Placed on a coaster made of cork the decoration is ready. If you only use it indoor you may as well put a large candle into the moss. It also looks very nice if you place the trunk on a wooden tray with further autumn accessories. When the moss has dried you simply replace it by a new charge of it from your garden.<\/p>\n
