    Awww that's so cute! Oooh, I could make one of those once I have my vegetable patch! Voldemort was going to help me create it, which obviously isn't happening now, but am determined to do it on my own, as soon as the ground is soft enough.

    I love that scarecrow - I put him in my "list of sites to visit and make" when you posted the link before...he's just adorable. (the list of things to make is very, very, very long)

    Make sure you show us the finished result....maybe you could go into production!

    He is lush...although certainly wasn't going to pay out the £25 they wanted (and its very small) so have bought some large hessian sacks off ebay, and a cheap hat...just need a bit stake which I can get from garden centre or b&Q and then some straw and voila...:)

    Might also make a nice pretty hanky out of some scrap material and a nice scarf...bet someone takes it off the allotment!
