We grow sweet corn in our garden every year. We also live right next to corn fields. Needless to say, corn husks are plentiful here, and can be used for crafting.
Last year my daughter and I collected some husks and dried them in a single layer on towel lined cookie sheets. We used some to make the doll below.
Here is a nice tutorial you can follow to make your own corn husk doll. (Corn Husk Doll) I also found a cool tutorial for a corn cob doll that I know my daughter will want to try, (Corn Cob Doll) If you have a daughter like mine who loves all things from colonial and pioneer times then these would be great crafts to try.
