My family really enjoys Halloween and fall. My Mom, known as the Halloweenie Queenie, really enjoys decorating her yard and tends to go over the top! This year with the help of my son she built a fun Hillbilly Trick Mobile – a fun little Halloween truck or car. So, I thought I’d share it with you and how you can build your own to display in your yard for the season!
What You’ll Need:
- 7 Square Bales of Straw
- People – Mom used scarecrows from Michaels Craft Stores
- 4 Wheels – we used some old tillage equipment and wagon wheels
- Lights
- License Plate
- Steering Wheel
To assemble your trick mobile, set four bales on the ground to form a rectangle. Sit two in the back for the back seats and one in front for the front seat. Sit your scarecrow men and women in the seats. Place two wheels on each side on the ground. For the lights we used part of an old sandbox boat, but you can get creative and use whatever you’d like. For the license plate my Mom spray painted a board black and my son painted “Trick Mobile” on it with orange paint. For the steering wheel you could use a wreath or whatever you can find! Enjoy 🙂
Do you have any unique decorations to share for fall or winter?

This is so cute. A very creative idea!
LOL made me giggle. Just too freaking cute
What an awesome idea and so cute. I am always trying to come up with new fall and Halloween decorating ideas. Thanks for posting this one.
My little great niece is only 1 year old 3 days before Halloween so I think she’s going as a duck, a sleeper onesie suit to be able to put her in bed when she conks out, lol
Really cute! Our family always decorated our yard for Fall when I was growing up and then we would take a family picture by it.
LOVE this! I love all the Fall/Halloween activities… hayrides, pumpkin picking, etc… and trick-or-treating! My babies are dressing up as Monster High Draculaura, a black kitten, and an angel!
me & my hubby are going to be gilligan & ginger from gilligan’s isle 🙂
Very cute! It looks like you live in the country, so that fits perfectly!
This is a really cute and unique idea! Around here most people don’t do such creative decorating! I’m definitely saving this idea for next year. I love how the possibilities for creating it are really endless and it can be personalized for each family! Thanks for the idea!
Love this! So simple yet looks so great!
Really like this idea! Very cute! My grandchildren would have fun making something like this!

My 7 year old is going as laguna blue from Monster High and my other daughter wanted to go as Abbey Bominable so this would be so cool to win and surprise her with it. My son is scream
My daughter is 12 so this would fit her just right she is taller then me lol
