Scarecrow

I have scarecrows on the brain.....(shades of Oz here I think)
The reason is secret at the moment.
But it is reminding me of last year at this time when I was creating another "secret."
It was so secret that it didn`t get posted on the blog at all.

My cousins Carolyn and Joanne and her daughter Victoria were all celebrating special birthdays and we were invited to a big party at Garston. We camped at Joanne and Jonathan`s  
farm where the party was held.
As a birthday present we made a scarecrow for Joanne, who dances with the Garston Gallopers, 
 a Morris group. The scarecrow was dressed as a Morris dancer.




.......with a bit of artistic license.

The lovely head dresses with real flowers.


For September it was very cold as the evening wore on but the party was a great success.
We all had a great time.

  1. The scarecrow is still in the spare room - she's not allowed outside! Meant to take it down to the village fete (we didn't have a scarecrow competition this year, but wanted to put it on our stand) but forgot her!
    Still, if there's a scarecrow competition next year - she'll be in it......and win!
