Well, I finally finished my Scarecrow Tin Man project. If you count from when I actually got started on this thing it took me June, July and August to complete. Of that time about 80% or more in just staring at him wondering how I was going to do this... or that... or maybe I could...
All Hail google! was not really helpful, plenty of pictures but never clear instructions or if there were, not applicable in my case for one reason or another.
It sounded so simple when I first contemplated him
Gather cans... Did not want to buy anything (ha!). First thing was to get 2 oval cans of ham for feet. Seeing as it's been at least 20 years since I bought one of those, the Price! Thank goodness for Dollar Store, less than 1/2 price .. wheee and whew!
Ham salad, Jambalaya, sandwiches, under poached egg, reach in the fridge and munch.. but I ate them both finally.
Stack and then tape to see how he looks. Didn't like his head, had to buy some tomato juice, sigh... made aspic (mentioned on another thread) ate that for almost 2 weeks, then very happily chucked the rest with its waving fungus fingers.
so I've just spent 15 minutes trying to turn him but all pictures were taken in portrait position due to his hegiht, so sorry, guess they will all be like that.

not to mention a little bit of preening with the accolades
