Beginner 1-2 Hours

Begin by hot gluing a bit of crafting straw hay to the bottom of one terra cotta pot.
Glue the bottom of the other terra cotta pot to the bottom of the first terra cotta pot.
Glue braided crafting straw to the sides of the top pot.
Add extra crafting straw hay to the open terra cotta pot on the top. Add fabric fall leaves for extra decoration.
Measure out and cut enough burlap to cover the sides of the top pot.
Glue the measured burlap to the face of the top pot.
Add googly eyes to the surface on the burlap part of the top pot.
Glue jute twine under the eyes to form a happy smile on your scarecrow.
For added decoration, you can add a burlap patch to the body of the scarecrow. We also made a little bow tie out of yarn and glued it to our scarecrow but you can also create a bow out of ribbon using your P-touch.
Using the braided crafting straw, cut the desired length for legs.
Glue the legs to the bottom half of the terra cotta pot.
