Anyone travelling down Meroo Road at Bomaderry on Anzac Day couldn't have not noticed the stunning display on show by the McGuire family.

Joyce Tetley and Danny McGuire had 10 soldiers' figures and three portraits of servicemen on display, along with two wreaths and two small and larger Australian flags.

Incredibly the figures and portraits are all made of sheep's wool.

If they look familiar, you might have seen them at the Sydney Royal Easter Show three years ago when they were part of the Southern Districts display which claimed first place as part of the annual District Exhibits competition.

Mr McGuire, who is friends with Cambewarra couple Henry and Faye Suffolk, who are heavily involved in the display each year, actually helped in the dismantling of the display.

"I was helping Henry remove the display and they were unsure what they were going to do with them," Mr McGuire said.

"No one really wanted it, I couldn't see them just thrown out so happily took them.

"It's just brilliant - all the figures are made from different coloured sheep's wool."

The figures and portraits were along the rear wall of the display which also showcased the district's various vegetables and fruits which were on show in.

They were constructed by Faye and Joan Lewis and "are brilliant".

"The wool is all the natural colour, nothing has been dyed," Mr McGuire said.

"It took an incredible amount of work and there are thousands of staples, which were all hand stapled, holding the wool in place.

"The portraits are of actual servicemen taken from real photos."

Unfortunately he was unable to save and transport a large ship which was also part of the display, which was 10 metres long and four metres high.

"It's a special day and we just wanted to do something for the Anzacs and to mark and honour their service," Joyce said.

The couple first showed the display three years ago, missing 2020 due to COVID but again erected the display on Sunday.

"It's great to be able to put it on show and honour all those for their service," Mr McGuire said.

"And the response was incredible.

"We put it up first light and then it was Facebooked and the response was incredible.

"We had people and children coming all day and stopping to look.

"We didn't realise how interested people would be in it

"The response and the comments were overwhelming."

But their effort didn't come without some drama, late Saturday evening as Mr McGuire was putting star pickets in place to support the display he managed to pierce a water pipe into the property.

"We had a fountain for a while," he said. "It was a quick trip to Bunnings to get some gear for repairs."

The couple say they intend to install the display again next year.
