If you like you can make a scarecrow hat from tan construction paper and attach to your crow’s head.
So cute!! For the kids? I suppose.. But I think I like it for MYSELF! (0; TFS, and have a great weekend! ~tina
I enjoy your blog so much Amanda…I do crafts with my grandchildren and we always can find something interesting to do on your site. You could use this technique to make angry birds as well!
