Brass

While searching through some more things in the basement , I came across some of my brass pieces. Found this bed warmer, & some other brass ladles that I use have by fireplaces in previous homes. I also have my grandmothers candle sticks. Does anyone have a great cleaning solution for brass. Also found a copper teapot, ( not shown) & was wondering out there in blogland if anyone knows how to clean copper also. Thought I would throw in a few pics of some fall things in the house. I made this little scarecrow, from a Jackie Schmidt pattern. I added the raffia.

.

This crow & pumpkin garland was made by my husband & me out of old barn roofing . My husband is pretty good with the tin snips. I told him what shapes I wanted & he cut them out for me. I painted them & added the wire & the homespun. It hangs above our back door.

The cornucopia is still getting filled with gourds at the local farmers market that I go to on Saturday mornings. They are just slowly coming in there to the market. The scarecrow, I made many years ago, & he makes his appearance every fall in our house.

Hope everyone is having a great week.
