I love all the decorations...you guys did a great job. I especially love the bear witch...

Got a lot going on there. I like all your decorations. Love the fall scene the best cause of all the beautiful colors.

Looks oh so Fall!! Love all of your decorations and all of your bears! You have quite the collection. Fall is my favorite time of year--I love the colors and the wonderful smell it brings to the air! Thanks for sharing with us!

Ohhh, very nice! I especially love the tables made of branches..with those great bears! Nothing scary at your place! Love it! Andt thanks for sharing...it's given me a couple ideas that I can use here. Jeanne S.

Love the rustic welcome-ness. And the bears especially.
Nice! The road side bears costume is a hoot! And the signs. Do you get any trick or treaters?

Makes me wonder where the carved bear (about 10" tall) that my folks got at the Russian pavillion of expo 67 in montreal when I was a kid. Even tho it was so long ago and I was young I remember they had lots of cool bears for sale. Dad loved bears and he had a hard time choosing just one. My dad was worried that the US border patrol would want to take it away when we crossed back into the US, but fortunately they only asked if we had anything from Cuba. Then he wished he had bought more.

neat, I love that sign. I really don't have a good place to setup a fall display. Another thing is, we rarely get company.

Very pretty. Love the bears.

So Fall!!! I love your penny bowling ball. Which glue do you use to glue pennies onto the ball?

I love it all especially the 2 pumpkins by Bart ,are they metal so beautiful, then your porch is so great, did you design your house. If you didn't you probably took 1 look & said to Carol "This is it!" It is so welcoming of course all the wonderful touches add to it. I was trying to figure out the cat on the wreath-duh-it's a bear!!! Even like the squirrel & love love the rustic table, just an amazing job you guys did!! Jan

Love it all, but the bear and the old table really stand out!

WOW! Thanks for all of your nice comments. I decorate for Halloween for our own kids. Living out in the woods, we usually get only 5 trick-or-treaters, and they all come at once in the same car! Our neighbors... :o) Jan, we picked out a house design, and then tweaked it. We really wanted a country porch, dormers, and lots of windows. (We love watching the widlife from the windows.) Susie, I used GEII after painting the BB copper. I'm working on another one right now as a Christmas gift for a friend. Jan, those pumpkins are metal. Bought them at JoAnn's Fabrics. We love rustic furniture. Just like my twig fence and arbor, I now make twig furniture.

Now you know why I sign everything "Bear Hugs". I love bears and even live on Bear Creek in an area called Bear Creek Crossing. My fourth graders are known as The Grizzlies. I've attached an old post of mine, sharing some of my bears. The post is so old, it doesn't link to the forum anymore. I found it by doing a search on the internet. I LOVE BEARS! Bear Hugs! Kirk

Kirkus-
Your fall decorations are gorgeous! And I love the bear decorations. What a nifty theme for a lovely home in the woods.

I live in the northwoods of WI, and I too have bear "decorations." Except they are the real thing. Check out my link below.

Awwww, I love all the bears, Kirk but I really like the one on the stump with yours and Carol's initials on it. How sweet! Your penny BB still looks great! Now if I came to your house trick or treating, could I get that sunflower instead of some candy? Or maybe a bear or two? he-he

Thanks for the wonderful treat that I didn't have to do any tricks for!

Everything is so wonderful. I just love your place!
hugs, Karen

Becky, I checked out your link and think my jaw is STILL on the floor where I dropped it. What an incredible story, and the pictures...oh my, those wonderful bear pictures. I think I laughed and cried and felt my heart swell with WONDER over your bears! You are an amazing woman, with a huge heart!! Thank you SO much for the glimpse into your life with your furry family and friends.

hugs, Karen

Karen-
I'm just a "lurker" here on the garden junk forum, but I love checking out everyone's ideas, pictures, links, blogs etc. SUCH creativity. I really enjoyed Kirukus' fall decorations with the bear theme and it gave me some really good ideas. EVERYONE in this forum gives me great ideas! You people are simply amazing! Especially those whose creativity expands into the recycling realm. So cooool!!!

So you discovered my quadruplet orphan bear cub story eh? I think my jaw is still on the floor too. Your comments had me LOL!
