Garden Gladys Night

Our scarecrow is up!

She was built out of the ‘good junk’ from the work shop and she is one classy lady.

(Tons of great junk with lots of potential or Tons of junk that is not going to be easy to weld together)

‘We’ built her, our responsibilities breaking down as follows:

Design – 100% Me

Welding – 80% My Loving Spouse, 20% Me

Grinding – 100% My Loving Spouse

Arguing about design details 50%/50%

Arguing about the inability to weld just ‘anything’ I thought should go together 50%/50%

…but we did get her done…

she is fantastic….

I’ll let the pictures tell the story…

(Shovel Head
Tractor Bit Bow & Chain Hair)

(Old Andiron Legs which are wonderful
or as some say,
“Why did you have to pick something so heavy?”)

(Body to Leg Attachment)

(Perky Blue Skirt)

(Gladys shoulders and arm attached
boob building first vise/mammogram)

(Gladys get a bit of neck grinding)

(Garden Gladys’ Ta Da moment)

(Garden Gladys where she belongs.)

It might be a ‘girl’ thing…so far, I’m about the only one that thinks Gladys is fabulous!  The guys….not so much.  My Loving Spouse to quote, “That is the strangest scarecrow I’ve ever seen.”  A neighboring male (who shall remain more nameless than usual) wondered why Gladys’ boobs went down, well.. I am using really old parts.

If you want to know her full name… Garden Gladys Night and the ________.  You’ll have to ask My Loving Spouse.

If you want to weld some junk, come on over, I’ve only just begun!

Future projects?
