We Scared the Crows

So I’m not great at updating everything we’ve done at a quick pace so I’m going back a bit to when we made some scarecrows!

The Cambridge Sculpture Garden (www.cambridgesculpturegarden.ca)  puts on the event every year. They call it Scare the Crows.

We arrive and checked in. It is an event you have to sign up for, and I’m very happy my friend Michelle signed us up with her and her daughter.

Each of us made our own scarecrow. They gave us a list of everything we would require from a frame which consisted of black tubing about 1 or 2” round glued together with 2 sets of “arms” from it, to all the clothing and pins to put it together and keep it there!

We found a spot on the lawn at the garden, and started to work. They had bales of hay all over so we didn’t have to worry about being too far from our supplies.

 

The girls had a blast filling the crows with hay, pinning everything on them so they stay.

End results had some really happy kids!

 

Her crow was even in the shot that the local paper took. I can’t find any of their photographs online but if you are wanting to see all of the scarecrows that were made that day, check out the website that the Cambridge Sculpture Garden has!
