Socks for a Halloween Scarecrow Costume

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village I am going to show you how to make a scarecrow costume. Then we come to socks. Now there are two lines of thinking when it comes to socks and scarecrows. One of them is that socks should be brighter colors. Red and white stripes. That sort of thing for a scarecrow. It's kind of one of the areas you can be a little bright and cheerful on the scarecrow body. I have never quite understood that. And I like to kind of go a little more traditional. I mean scarecrows are outside. It's cold. So I actually like to have kind of thicker more cottony socks. Generally in more subdued shades. Such as having this in black and grays or also browns. Even light browns would probably work. This is also great because the thicker cotton socks will also allow us to kind of stuff more things into the scarecrow later on which we are going to get too. Where as thin dress sock we are not really going to be able to stuff anything in there. It also could get itchy if you tried to do something like that. So for socks I generally recommend a gray and black shades to have there. In addition some things you can think of you are going to want to have, you are definitely going to want to have socks. Some scarecrows don't have feet at all. But of course you are a human you have feet. You are going to need some socks. "
