Is anyone aware of artificial corn stalks for sale? Growing up in the upper midwest--they embodied Halloween and Fall. Living in AK now and no corn to be had...

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Peter

oh-and I'm not against making them, if the material is readily available and actually can be made to look corn-like...

Check out Allen Hopps' (Stiltbeast Studios) video tutorial for 'Making Corn': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXKmwGGcUcA

Also, within the last few days, someone had posted about using a photo backdrop of corn stalks, as the background for their scene.

Interesting video--maybe next year. Was hoping to get a corn shock for the yard but don't think I'll have time to "build" one.

Thanks

I think Unorthodox (or maybe another board member) uses something similar to corn stalks for his yard haunt, but can't remember what they're called?

One of our Local Garden Centers sells them around this time of year along with hay bales. Have you checked out any garden centers?

I was going to make my own but the farm we go to to get pumpkins had a batch for $8. The material alone would have cost me $30. In for the details

Lowes has been known to sell a bundle of 5/6 for $5.00

Our local Walmart has corn for sale. They were out, but got a bunch of new stalks in for $3.50 a bunch.

We also have a Mennonite store that sells food, spices produce, etc, and they have beautiful bunches of corn stalks for $2.00 each.

Hope you can find some.

Plan ahead for next year and grow your own. I might just have to do that if I want any for next year.
