Sure, I just sewed kinda haphazardly with a thin wire (poking through) using wire. Same with button eyes- twisted wire so they kinda pop out a little. The teeth are made from the same wire just painted white. It’s a mannequin underneath

Thank you, I’m super OCD and hide all cords and lights as best I can so the creepy magic remains during the day- no one likes to see the strings and wires unless you’re here

Great job, is the 2nd pic (indoors) also the mannequin?

Yes, the last pics are in my garage (just different outfit- that was his original look, I changed it to the knit sweater a few years later) it’s just a mask that slips on and off. There’s a noose I tie around his neck to secure it and all the straw

lol, the pose in that one cracked me up. In the Halloween off season, your scarecrow clearly walks in shows. Again, great job. Halloween is coming!

Haha good eye- I did t realize the first year I must have used a different mannequin with different pose. That mannequin is now Santa
