I think you'll find plenty scope on here, Bobbi!

Maybe a pumpkin-head scarecrow

hahaha, that had crossed my mind but No, I want something original Haz

Does it have to be a person? Could it be an animal?

Question Author

anything I suppose Calmck, I've looked on Amazon and there are a few there but mostly the 'normal' scarecrow

There is a village near me which does this every year. We could be speaking about the same place

Question Author

first time for ours 5leaves but a nearby village does it regularly. Tanfield? the only other one I have seen is in the Y Dales at Kettlewell

Question Author

ohhh I love Dingle Dangle and I have a garden seat, thank you Haz for that

Think a Boris Johnson mask and a notice around the neck saying Wurzel gummage would win you first prize there Bobbi..What could be more original than that then .haha.

 

 

 

 

Or better still Bobbi, A scarecrow, with a Boris Johnson mask and a long carrot for the nose and a label saying Pinocchio. haha.

There are some good ones here...including dogs. Maybe do one of Lola.

Normally it's what you are known for so if you keep a beautiful garden and are always seen in the garden you're scarecrow would be a gardener with some of your features so what are you known for in your village and play on that

some great ideas there thank you

During lockdown our village had a scarecrow display.  I made a maypole and had little Barbie & Sindy dolls dancing around it.  Someone made a lovely Flowerpot Man - someone else did a 'Headless horseman' with lots of blood!

In Midsomer Murders, there was a murder at a Scarecrow festival.  Let's hope that doesn't happen.

Looks like you found a village idiot as a bonus contribution whatever you choose Bobbs. How about Ursula von der Leyen. Enough to scare anyone. 

If you can get your hands on an old bicycle you could make use of that and do a LEZ or lycra fanatic themed one Bobbi.
