If I had known how much these people are selling these dead corn stalks for I would have saved mine... 5 bucks a stalk, I lost about 40 bucks...

I want to make things out of them, but they are brittle by the time I start to use them.

For our little village's Old Time Autumn Festival people were asked to decorate one of the downtown lampposts. Since this is Nebraska corn growing farmland, most have gone out to nearby fields (usually their own or with owner permission) and cut down corn stalks. My wife and her sister cut about forty stalks with ears of corn still attached. We wired them to the post, removed the husks so the ears were visible. Then they added a bunch of squashes and pumpkins at the bottom and added bittersweet around the top of everything and then put a big bow on the whole package.
There must be at least 20 bushels of corn attached to the village lampposts. The squirrels will love it.
