We have been asked for ideas on how to make a scarecrow so many times that we have put together our very own kit.

Each kit includes:
- 2 recycled coffee bean sacks
- 1 broom handle
- 2 bamboo canes
- 1 ball orange garden string
- 2 needles
- 1 marker pen
- 1 packet of seeds
and beautifully illustrated instructions.

The hat is not included, so please visit a charity shop or rummage through your drawers for an old hat, scarf or any other accessories you would like to adorn your scarecrow with.

The kit makes a scarecrow about 1m tall. Please take a look at our scarecrow photo gallery for more ideas for scarecrows.

Not suitable for children under 3 years old (although they will no doubt admire the result!). And please see the video below to see Leroy making a scarecrow.

Two options:
- Just scarecrow kit, £28
- Scarecrow kit and scarecrow book (RRP £15), £35
