Pumpkin Harvest

It's that time of year - harvest! The air is getting cooler and drier, 'the corn is as high as an elephant's eye ♫'  apples are gathered into baskets, and pumpkins are hidden among their vines and leaves on the garden floor.

What's next? Pumpkin pie, pumpkin latte, pumpkin custard...

Making a Rusty Barbed Wire Wreath!

 If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!

So when you live on a farm, things accumulate. There's bound to be stuff lying around - stuff you get tired of seeing!  Right? Can you identify with this??

Lately I've come to a new appreciation of the treasure trove of junk items that could be useful to me in a new way. I think that would called 'recycling.' I think my husband would call it, 'You gotta be kidding.'  Well, this is my attempt at embracing the junk around our place. SO, with some inspiration from other bloggers, I went in search of rusty barbed wire. Did I find it? Of course - along with lots of other rusty junk.

Hanging by a spring

What you see before you is a newly-wound roll of old, rusty barbed wire, an old spring with which to hang this 'wreath,' and a 'rose' clipped from an old bed spring. Oh yeah, doesn't everyone have this junk lying around???

The background is made from a couple sheets of a sort of tongue-in-groove metal that was leftover from building the grain bin (probably built about 60 years ago - yes, that was before we bought this farm).

The main corn stalks were ones discarded from the garden, and the ears sitting on the rusty stool are actually popcorn, so I'll have to make sure to keep an eye on them so the mice don't move in and eat them before we do.

The pumpkin spice candle was given to me by our daughter-in-law. She knows I love pumpkin spice!♥♥

So listen up, ladies, don't waste your time wishing your husband didn't accumulate junk. Embrace it! It could give you an whole new hobby! :-)
