Express your style with a scarecrow
With the autumn season upon us, I decided to focus on the scarecrow, a familiar symbol of the fall harvest. Have you ever considered the creative style of the person who created your favorite scarecrow? What is your creative style? Traditional? Ghoulish?

ReplyDeleteI love the pumpkin butt!! can you please give me a quick note on how to make this scarecrow?? thanks!!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I agree - such a clever idea for a scarecrow. I wish I could outline its construction for you, but I posted it as one of my favorites (and did not create it myself).
DeleteMaybe we could all brainstorm together. I would try using PVC for legs, weighted down with a bag of sand inside the base of each pipe. I think the pumpkins would balance well on those, once a PVC "groove" is carved into the pumpkins, Bubble wrap, wrapped around the PVC, could be used to fill-out the legs.
Now, what to do for the body? How about it, my creative readers? How would you create the "pumpkin-butt scarecrow"?
