I'm 62 yrs young ( will be 63 in 2months) I remember making appleheads in 3rd grade. Every Friday our teacher had art day & we loved it. We made our appleheads before Halloween so they were ready near that day. We inserted sticks in them so she could hang them to dry. When we took them home right before Halloween my mom sewed up a dress for mine & a scarf for it's head. It looked like a old gypsy lady ! I inserted my hand up the dress & held the stick we inserted on carving day and it was like a puppet. My mom liked it so much that my brothers & I & our mother made some more carved appleheads together. 💗
