| Not exactly garden junk, but thought I'd share an idea I created this weekend for my granddaughter. She recently got 2 live miniature horses and every year I decorate a pumkin for her. So this year I thought I'd combine her new pets with her pumkin. Went to the dollar store and purchased a stuffed horse, cut it in half, I turned the raw edges in and used opened up paper clips as push pins and secured each half to the pumpkin. I pointed the head side up as if it is rearing up. I positioned a scarecrow, also a dollar store purchase, as if it was riding the horse, and then filled in with fall leaves and autumn colored silk flowers. Gotta say it is a one-of-a-kind pumpkin! She loved it, and thats what its all about!

| Is that adorable! I'm sure she is going to absolutely love it. It's just too bad the pumpkin will eventually rot because I'd love to keep that one around forever! |

| Adorable!! Might have to replace the pumpkin with a styrofoam or plastic one so it will last a lot longer! Mini horses are so cute! Got a pic of them & grandchild you can put it over on conversations side of this forum! Jan |
