He would scare my little dog for sure.

He was as close as I could get to a scarecrow. (Not for competition, tho).

My kind of scarecrow, Bubblieeessss.
I love him.

Thanks, PVC pipe is my friend!

Jack is so cute!

Super cute!!

Thanks! He lives on the porch until Halloween night, then he comes inside. 'Scared of all those little kids in costumes.



Easy to make. Just PVC pipe with a piece of wood to connect the "legs" and a light bulb to light up the head. The light wire is threaded down one leg. The boots are screwed onto a board and hold him up.

Jack is great too - did you make his head?

I didn't make his head. It's some kind of fabric over wire. It was made as a hanging lantern, or to top a light bulb. 'Like a Japanese paper lantern frame, only sturdier and slightly squashed. I think you could probably cover one of those frame with strips of heavy white cloth, and then paint it orange. Or simply use a plastic pumpkin with a light in it.

This is how it's held together:


Next year, I thought about having him wear some decent Western boots...and having a family!
