Once I made one of those old crone heads out of an apple. I peeled it and shaped what I thought looked like a face and then I took black embroidery thread and stitched rows of "hair" through the head of the fresh apple. I set it aside for a month or so and watched it change every day as it dried and whithered. The eyeholes sunk in and eventually I glued some little black beads in the sockets. The "hair" tightened in place and the skin became the tough, wrinkled skin of an old lperson. I never did make it a body, but I kept it for years.
