Nasco’s Nature’s Window
The best way to collect and display natural material!
Perfect for collecting and displaying leaves, flowers, insects,
or any natural material for reports, bulletin boards, posters,
or window displays. Sandwiched between two transparent
plastic cover sheets is a transparent sheet that is sticky on
both sides. This allows you to remove one of the cover sheets,
apply nature materials to the sticky sheet, cover back up with
transparent sheet, then remove the other cover sheet on the
back and apply to a window for a unique two-way display.
Use either permanent or washable marker to label samples.
Nature’s Window can be rinsed and reused for many years of
display, or remain a permanent display mount for windows or
boards. This teacher-created product is limited only by your
imagination. 8-1⁄2" x 11" sheet. Grades 3-8. Sh. wt. 0.31 lbs.
