Mother Nature Halloween costume

by melynda Email

:>Happy Halloween!:>

Why not dress up as Mother Nature this year? This costume is perfect for nature lovers and last minute costume makers!

Follow up:

This came from About.com.

Materials Needed:

* Old Shirt and Skirt, Either Brown or Green
* A Large Selection of Silk Plants and Flowers
* Twigs (Optional)
* Fake Birds and Other Small Animals (If Available)
* Glue Gun and Glue

Instructions:

Glue the Silk flowers and plant pieces randomly all over the shirt and skirt, however you choose. Also include the twigs if desired. Attach the fake birds and other small critters (if available) to the clothes, shoes, and anywhere else desired. You can even make a bird or two look like it is perched on your head by gluing the feet to a barrette (you can also use heavy wire).

We'll be dressing our almost 2 year-old as a wolf and the baby as a woolly bugger (it's a type of fly fishing lure).

What are your kids going as this year?
