September 30, 2017 at 10:15 pmI am looking for the directions to the Scarecrow Wall Decoration and I don’t see it posted. Could you please send the “how-to” so that i can make one. My sister and I each made one years ago. She has Alzheimers now and doesn’t remember making it. So please send directions. Thank you!

Is the scarecrow wall decoration a project that you found on my website? Because I can’t find it. If it’s not, could you provide a picture or a description of it so that I can find tutorial for you? Thanks 🙂
