Fall Wreath Upgrade: Scarecrow Fun!



Fall Floral Wreath

You might remember this wreath from previous fall decor posts.  I made it a couple of years ago and it hangs on our front door.

Recently I found some scarecrows at a yard sale that I thought would be fun to add to this wreath.  I chose them to represent our family of four and bought them for a total of $5.

I'm going to show you how easy it was to add the scarecrows to my fall wreath, but first......



.......Let me just share with you the 'upgrade' that Baby Girl created! 

See here is the thing; whenever I get out my supplies to work on any sort of project, I have one or two kiddos that want to take part in the fun.  Sometimes we can work side by side, and other times I let them play for awhile until they get bored.  

Today Baby Girl and I made a deal; she could design whatever kind of scarecrow/ pipe cleaner wreath that she wanted and I would put a photograph of it on the blog.  So here you go folks!

And now back to the wreath.....



Scarecrows!

(You can click here to read the treasure hunting post that features these scarecrows)



Step 1

The first thing I did was to remove the wooden sticks from the scarecrows.  They were easy to cut off with a pair of clippers.



Step 2

Since the 'Husby' scarecrow was the biggest, I added him first.  
A little hot glue was all I needed to attach the scarecrows.



Step 3

I added my scarecrow next.



Step 4

Then followed up with two tiny 'kid' scarecrows and that was that!



Front Door

I'm happy with the way the wreath turned out, and just in time to get ready for Thanksgiving.
But for now, I'm off to celebrate the Halloween weekend with the kids! 

I hope you enjoyed this how-to post, thanks for stopping by!
