My chickens believe that my mums are for standing on and walking through, which is to be expected, but when I find the broken stems my feathered vandals have left behind, I can’t bring myself to throw them away.

This is so lovely and so creative! I wish I had your creativity! Amazing
Everything looks sooooooooo beautiful and colorful :)
You'd probably be surprised but pumpkins are not so popular here as we don't celebrate Halloween. So seeing all of this is still unique for me :)
What a gorgeous and sensible project! Thanks so much for the great idea ;)
