Supplies needed: string and an antique Christmas ornament.
Making Cost: $1*
If you have ever raised fruits or vegetables in your yard, you are aware of how challenging it can be to keep birds from pecking at your plants. After all, our avian companions find these vividly colored morsels highly enticing. You could just use an old Christmas bauble in place of purchasing a large scarecrow.
