Candy Corn is fun fall treat. I love the each of the white, orange and yellow layers. When it is packaged as a cute candy corn Scarecrow who can resist it!

To make these adorable candy corn scarecrows you will need:
- An empty glass bottle. I reused a Starbucks frappuccino bottle.
- Plastic cup
- Yellow sharpie
- Buttons
- candy corn
- Brown and orange paper scraps
Color your plastic cup with a yellow sharpie. You could also use a yellow paper cup. However, I like how the plastic curls and it was what I had on hand. Trim your cup to the correct size, and cut slits to mimic straw. Gently curl the edges. Add a paper band to the hat as a finishing touch. You could also embellish with flowers if you were making a girl scarecrow.
Glue on button eyes and a paper stitched mouth. Fill your jar with candy corn and your little candy corn Scarecrow is all finished.
These little Scarecrows would make a great teacher gift or favors for your next party. I was able to use recycled materials and make what I had on hand work. All I needed to purchase was the candy. I love cute project that don’t cost anything to make!
How completely adorable!
Thanks!
