Woollen Woods exhibition

I've sent some knitted acorns & oak leaves to Eden Arts canopy project exhibition at Sizergh Castle.My acorns are 'seasonal' Spring,Summer,Autumn,Winter versions & I realize I should have taken pictures before sending them ---- too late now!The exhibition is entitled The Woollen Woods' & runs from April 12th to September 1st.There should be all sorts of woolly creatures & vegetation decorating the the trees ladybirds,owls,bats fungi etc.I thought as Sizergh is a National Trust property my acorns & oak leaves would be appropriate.Hope to visit the exhibition & hunt out my acorns & take a picture of them in situ!
