I thought about bookmark sets for my Etsy shop. Two of three were finished, gnomes and flower paperclips and I couldn’t come to solution for the third type. It’s unwritten rule that idea never come the moment you need it, so I decided to pause with bookmarks and deal with other things. Every time I have to clear my mind, I go to my storage room and start to rearrange all my repro materials and to throw everything I don’t need. And every time, my cats try to enter the room in order to make their own investigation. It’s an unfair struggle, because I am outnumbered, but eventually, I manage to throw them all out of the room. Sometimes I even succeed to do it, before they make a mess. Not this time… While I chased my Russian blue devil, gingers manage to drag a sack with dried pampas grass and spread it all over. I held my breath, along with all the curses that came to my mind, and start picking the grass. And suddenly, the third bookmark idea was there! I am going to make scarecrows. One quick glance over my stuff, to see what else I have for my project and a whole picture of them was in my mind.
Some wooden sticks and beads, fabric scraps, shredded pampas grass, plastic pearls and fake zircons for decoration and in a couple of hours of gluing, my scarecrows were finished. I placed them between flower pots, to look prettier on photos. They really looked good among green leaves so I made a few for myself and placed them in flower pots. Now, I have a farm. E-I-E-I-O….. 😀
You can keep the sugar, but I want the spice. We’ll split the nice stuff
Thanks for viewing. 🙂
…your scarecrows don’t look scary ar all, they look adorable and cute…still good job for making them.. 🙂
It wasn’t my intention to make something scary. I wanted to make something cute enough to make kids read more books. 🙂
yeah and it turns out very much cherished by kids instead of getting scared…good job 🙂
I am a mom, I know things. 🙂
Your kids are lucky to have you as their mom.. 🙂
Apparently, this is where it all comes from! For two days some cute scarecrows have come to my dreams
Apparently, all good things come from the most unexpected places 🙂
You are right. Things like that ?ften happen. ?
Yes, for those who are open minded 🙂
That’s the question, I don’t know if I have an ?pen mind!
They look lovely, they are not like a scarecrow ?
Well, now I see that they look more like little farm boys 🙂
Soo cute!!
I’m very much into miniatures!!
Thanks, me, too 🙂 I simply adore small things 🙂
Good thing these are the imitation of the Batman villain named The Scarecrow.
Truth to be told, I’m not a fan of Batman’s movies and have never seen that scarecrow. These are just regular scarecrows. 🙂
Are they scarecrows? OMG… they look so cute, actually we are inviting instead of scaring away 😀 😀
These could scare some flies and mosquitoes only 😀
When I do scarecrows they don’t look cute like yours do…
Girls do cute things, boys do scary ones 🙂
Slime and snails and puppy dog tails, eh?
My point, exactly 😀
You can keep the sugar, but I want the spice. We’ll split the nice stuff…

Thanks 🙂 I’m glad you like it 🙂
Thanks for your kind words 🙂
These are absolutely adorable! 🙂
