Entered By: The Curious Nest
Entry Category: Retail Business Entry
Description
This year’s scarecrow is called Amanita “Must-Scare-Ya” and the Funguys as a play on words with the poisonous mushroom Amanita Muscaria and our fungi friends. We are avid mushroom hunters in our family and love this time of year for tasty forest treats but beware the beautiful yet deadly amanita fly catcher.
Our scarecrow was constructed with antique French lace, a fabricated mushroom cap, tons of tiny skull and mushroom details, straw hair and a little wink of style to one of my personal hero’s, Dolly Parton. Our five year old daughter cut out all the paper dots and helped with the arrangement and construction. Scarecrow creating is now a family tradition!
We also created a tiny forest in our shop window for Miss Amanita to spend her days scaring the crows away.
