When To Make Scarecrow Crafts
There are all sorts of craft ideas in this list. Here are a few of the different kinds of parties that you can host as an excuse to make them.
Make the easier crafts – like the paper plate scarecrow hat – at children’s fall parties. Make a scarecrow birthday party theme or a not-scary Halloween party.
Are you looking for an excuse to get the girls together? Then plan a craft night and make some scarecrow porch signs. Anyone can make them – even the “not-so-artsy” friends.
Some of the scarecrow crafts on the list are also perfect if you’re bored and want a creative outlet. Make some DIY fall decor for your house or yard.
Or make some crafts with your kids! It’s a wonderful way to create some memories that will last a lifetime.
That’s why I put crafts on this list for all ages and skill levels. Preschoolers can make the torn paper craft, and teens will have more fun with the wine glass votive holder.

Generally, most of the crafts in this list use the same general supplies. You’ll need a lot of brown, white, and orange acrylic paint.
It’s also a good idea to buy a hot glue gun with glue sticks, some felt and some paper plates and construction paper.
