Speaking of pumpkins/autumn...

My parents' neighborhood is having a scarecrow contest for fall morale (they live in a Historic District, so the neighborhood does stuff like this fairly often), and I was thinking about making a scarecrow person surrounded by three or four scarecrow dogs. However, google kind of let me down, idea-wise. Please share your ideas for making scarecrow dogs. We can use pumpkins or hay or a combo... I'm usually pretty crafty, but I'm having a big fat brain fart about this right now.

  • Can you use cornstalks? It's kind of like hay. Okay, not at all, but it's fall-ish. I'm thinking small pumpkin head, on a big pumpkin body (think of my dog, only orange). Then use corn stalks to make big floppy ears. Tie three or four corn leaves together to make a poof of a tail.

  • square bale = dog's body. Pumpkin = dog's head. pumpkin leaves pinned to pumpkin = dog's ears. pin/glue on straw for whiskers!Oh...and pin a big leaf at the back of the bale for dog's tail!

  • Can you create a wire structure and weave the hay in and around it to form the bodies and use a pumpkin for a head?
