OK this pic will really call upon your imagination. I've discussed this with neighbors and think it will work.

A few yrs ago I bought a pair of 3' tall dolls for diversity workshops. I dressed each in modern afterschool garb, jeans and hoodies. I also have some dressier outfits for them. The first thing I did with them was de-cute them, removing or covering up the mob caps they come in like obscenely huge imitation Raggedy Anns.

I'm gonna seat them at the little table in the front holly bed. Tea parties in warm weather, ice skates and thermos for winter. They'll do fine under the eaves and fade only slowly in full shade. They can garden when I'm not looking.

The whole neighborhood has Halloween/harvest dolls-- scarecrowlike-- of similar size on sticks posing with corn shocks. Mine are more. ... substantial.
