Categories:

Traditional Harvest Figures: These scarecrows will be typically old-fashioned figures constructed from throw-aways from the farm-clothing, hay, stuffing, burlap, farm implements, or farm produce (corn husks, vegetables, pumpkins, etc.)

Humorous Scarecrows: These scarecrows should evoke smiles, if not belly laughs. Current events, storybook characters, cartoon figures, crazy characters, or out of the ordinary situations are just a few of the ideas for humorous scarecrows. These characters would be fictional.

Celebrity Scarecrows: Use your imagination! This scarecrow can depict a modern day celebrity, or one from your past. Materials used may include metal, plastics, ceramics, etc. A celebrity is a real person. (Hint: consider movie or tv stars, book characters, famous people in the news, famous historical figures.)
