Spooky Blue scarecrow

Here are instructions on how to build a wonderful (and very Pumpkinrot-esque) scarecrow. (Now if I could only find a neighbor with grape vines I'd be all set to make one of my own.)

Evolution of scarecrow

Mr. Macabre has posted a series of photos detailing the evolution of his scarecrow from mundane to deliciously macabre. He started with "a large craft pumpkin coated with 3 cans of spray insulation foam, carved and then papier mache'd over that before painting and airbrushing. It took about a month and a half to make."
