I like to get creative.  I would make a bulb shape at the bottom and about 3/4 of the way down I would carve some 2" holes into the sides about 4 or 5" deep on all 4 sides to act like arms.  Don't think it's necessary. but fun to think it helps.

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.
