Quick and easy carving\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>adds a whimsical touch to fall d\u00e9cor<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

By Gerald Smith<\/em><\/p>\n

I carve a lot of Christmas ornaments to sell at craft fairs. Recently, a customer requested fall ornaments so she could decorate her feather tree to celebrate autumn. I created a few pumpkins and some leaves in fall colors. I had previously carved some larger scarecrows and decided to try carving miniature ones. The scarecrow ornaments have been very popular. After you finish carving your miniature scarecrows, check out our exclusive article on a list of painting supplies<\/a> to have on hand before you begin painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

Carve the scarecrow first and then drill a 1\/8″-dia. hole for the stem. Carve the stem from a piece of scrap wood and glue it into the hole.<\/p>\n

Thin the paints to the consistency of a stain. For darker paint colors, apply two coats of paint. Let the paint dry and then use undiluted black for the pumpkin\u2019s face. You can add a plaid pattern to the shirt using an ultra-fine black Sharpie. After the paint dries, apply wax with a toothbrush. Allow the wax to dry for 30 minutes and then buff it with a shoe brush.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

Gerald Smith has been carving since he was a boy.\u00a0 <\/span>In the early 1970s, Gerald moved to Colorado Springs, Colo., where he got involved with the Wood Carver\u2019s Museum and started carving more actively. A friend gave Gerald\u2019s business the name of \u201cSanta\u2019s Whiskers\u201d because of Gerald\u2019s beard and the Santas he carves.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
