Jadyn & Mr. Pumpkin Head Scarecrow.........
I saw this pumpkin display in a friend's yard one day and I thought...what a perfect place to take a picture!
So, the other day I said to Jadyn.....come on! We're going to go take your picture with a scarecrow! Well, of course she said SURE....because she heard the word picture! The girl just loves to get her picture taken! She definitely does NOT get that from her Nana!
SO off we went!
After after having to practically force her behind those gorgeous mums.....I wondered why she was a bit hesitant.
And then her little voice said...."I'm scared." Awwwwwww!! I said it's ok....he won't hurt you.
Well you can tell that passed rather quickly as soon as I said, "Say Pumpkin Seeds!"
Just look at that big pumpkin cheesecake grin on her face! hahaha!
Happy Fall Y'All!!!!!!!!!

The Beginning of the Great Pumpkin Adventure...
Well, yesterday was a day of fun, learning, fortune telling, tears, laughter and pain..........LOL Joycee of Enchanted Productions, Brenda of Little Dollings and I all three got together to try our hands at paper mache pumpkin making! Now let me tell you......we were all "paper mache virgins" heading into this adventure. And basically of right now.....still are! But what fun we're having learning!
It all started when we saw this website by Scott Stoll! If you are a Halloween lover, then you have to go see for yourselves!
Below is a pic of the 3 of us after our long day of Pumpkin making and man were we ever tired and achy! We had no idea that pumpkin making was such a back breaking job! lol But a little Advil and a good nights sleep has made me forget about the pain..........kind of like giving birth.........LOL!
Only these babies pictured below are still waiting to be born! This was the first step of stuffing the garbage bags with crumpled newspapers, then using twine and masking tape to define the ridges. Cardboard tubes were used for the beginning form of the stems.
And here's my pumpkin at home today trying to get it dry out in the sun and the wind. Only problem was, while it was sitting out there, the skies began to darken and I heard rain!!! OH NO!!!!!!!!! Now the sun is shining (again) and I have it sitting stem side down on a large sap bucket to dry it's bottom. See....it IS like having a baby! LOL
A special "Thank You" To Laurie Hardin of Monkey Cats Studio for throwing us a lifeline while we had our hands deep in glue, water and liquid starch! She has been a wealth of paper mache knowledge these past fews days and we love her for that!
So stay tuned for the continuing WIP of the Great Pumpkin Adventure and make sure that you visit Brenda and Joyce's blogs for more pics!

Scott Smith's Amazing Pumpkin/Gourd Head Scarecrows...........
Last year for Ghoultide Gathering, the talented Scott Smith of Rucus Studio sculpted these amazing Pumpkin/Gourd heads to welcome the shoppers. The heads are all on display again in Northville, MI and will be put on scarecrow bodies this year welcoming people to Ghoultide Gathering.
When I saw these............man o man..............I started to have some serious pumpkin envy! I had to email Scott to ask if they were for sale and to let him know that I would adertise for him by putting one in my shoppe window! LOL I think alot of others had the same idea too! LOL
I emailed Scott to ask permission to post these here for you all to enjoy and he kindly gave me his permission (Thank you Scott!)
He told me that he wished he had a warehouse or barn where he could be making those full time. Everyone keeps asking!!
Well....we certainly can understand why! And if you have time.....stop by Scott's blog and check out some of the pics from the article about him that was in Better Homes & Garden Halloween Tricks & Treats Magazine. You'll definitely want to run out and buy a copy today!
