What this video covers

Allen Hopps of Stiltbeast Studios walks through the construction of a wearable burlap scarecrow mask that is entirely latex-free and completable in roughly an hour and a half. The build relies on inexpensive, readily available materials including burlap bags, a spray sock base, and contact cement. Spray paints in earthy tones are used to finish and unify the look. The result is a convincingly creepy, lightweight scarecrow mask suitable for haunted house performers or costume use.

  • Total build time is approximately 90 minutes from start to finish
  • Uses low-cost hardware-store and craft-store materials

  • Suitable as both a wearable performer mask and a display prop
