€¢ Find yourself an old, baggy pair of jeans or overalls. Or just a baggy pair of jeans/overalls. If you're comfortable with ruining your jeans/overalls, you can rip holes in them (this comes in handy later!) and sew little patches on them.
If you plan on wearing these jeans/overalls after Halloween, just leave them as they are. €¢ Get a plaid shirt. Use one of your own, or borrow one from somebody else.
If possible, find one with a pocket (again, this comes in handy later). €¢ Find a straw hat. If possible, destroy it.
Make some holes in it. Farmers wouldn't put a brand-new, gorgeous straw hat on a scarecrow, now would they? €¢ Get a bandanna.
These can be bought at the Dollar Store for a buck if you can't find one lying around at home. €¢ Now for la 'piece de resistance'! You can use real hay, or go to a craft store and buy some fake hay.
This is essential for your costume, because otherwise nobody will understand that you're a scarecrow. You'll be projecting more of a farmer image. €¢ ... more.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
