Scarecrows……The Perfect Fall Decoration

SCARECROWS

I love to make old fashioned scarecrows every year for Halloween. We started this tradition as kids with mom and I have passed it on to my children. We have fun with it every year. Last year I made a few scarecrows to use for decorations at a church dance and then I brought them home and set them in our front yard. The photo above is a picture of a few of them. The witch, and two farmer scarecrows. The best part is that lots of little kids walk by our house on their way home from elementary school and they just love to go up and look at all the scarecrows and show their parents and friends. I get such a kick out it. Here are some pictures of other scarecrows that I have found on the internet.


This is the best scarecrow picture of them all…..These are just two of my 14 nephews and they happen to belong to my sister Tiffany……This is actually a photo from last year so I can’t wait to see what they create this year. OOOH they are just so cute with their pumpkin man!! Turner can hardly wait to get his pumpkin guy made each year…… I miss them terribly and can’t wait to see them. They make me laugh with all their funny expressions and silly things that they do. Let us know if you make some scarecrows.

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
