Gosh some of you are SO eagle-eyed…!
Since I shared my Project Life page at the weekend - I have had a few messages asking me what is at the front door of the house … So I went back to check… and had a giggle…and then thought…oh why not share!!!
So here is my largest Crafting project to date!! Though I cannot call it papercrafting as there is definitely more plastic than paper!!
And the story behind it…. every year our Great Ouseburn Spring Festival & Open Gardens has a Scarecrow Trail. We had always made a scarecrow – but this year we decided to do something a bit different!
Our excuse being that brand new Wheelie Bins had just been delivered on the Monday prior to the event… and I just said “ where are we going to hide this in our Open Garden this weekend!”
When all of a sudden a daft idea popped into my head – and so our Wheelie Bin Scarecrow Dalek was born… Oh! Such Happy Memories – really great crafting fun for all the family…
And great fun for the many visitors too…. though I think only the locals really understood the significance of the Wheelie Bin….
And you wouldn’t believe how many people had their photo taken next to our Dalek … just call me Madame Tussauds!! LOL!!!
Have Kids? Live in Yorkshire? Fancy looking at gorgeous Gardens – and a great Scarecrow trail with daft ideas like this one!!
Well you know where to come – Great Ouseburn – just 15 minutes from Wetherby, Harrogate, York & Thirsk - on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May 2015. Plug over!
