"Suzy Boo Anthony: It Would Be Frightening Not To Vote" - ID# 9448
Suzy Boo Anthony has returned, more than 100 years after her death, to serve as a haunting reminder that our democracy requires every American to stay engaged and be valued! We must be protectors and allies and be kind to one another. Much of Suzy Boo’s tireless work to ensure voting rights for all could be lost, and her ghost is here to tell us that we must remain vigilant. If we do not scare away the goblins, evil spirits, and bogeymen, the Constitution could become nothing but a specter. Read more

"Three little scarecrows in Halloween costumes" - ID# 6533
Created by 9 year old Zoe and her grandma Margie. Three tomato cages were built up with burlap for faces to appear like scarecrows dressed for trick or treating as a cowgirl, ghost and witch. We used items from the "Halloween bag" in the attic and fabric from the sewing cupboard. These little characters became huggable to Zoe, as she painted faces on them. We love the Halloween spirit of Edmonds' businesses and residents that create a safe and fun Halloween experience for local children. This display will only be up as weather permits, as it may be hard to protect them against rain and wind, which is why I am not including an address. Read more

"Marie BonBon" - ID# 29
This year's scarecrow is a nod to our French heritage. The bodice is made out of candy (candy corn and twizzlers) that my four year old gleefully helped to glue in place while sampling the goods. The dress is made out of paper, feathers and little crow trinkets. A reminder to remember history so we dare not repeat it. Read more
"2020 Dumpster Fire" - ID# 24
Like many of the memes we've seen out there this year - 2020 is a 'dumpster fire' and we often want to curl up in the fetal position to ride it out. Instead we make scarecrow art that makes us laugh and find solace and survival in our community and friends as we navigate the year. Read more
