Ghost Costume

Home-Made Halloween Costume Idea

By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Make this easy ghost Halloween costume.

Cut a hole in the center of a white sheet big enough for your head to fit through and drape it over your neck. Have someone cut along the bottom of the sheet so it lays just above your shoes (so you don't trip!). Use the scraps of sheet you have left to make your ghost costume "ragged" looking by tearing strips, drapping them over the shoulders of the costume, and gluing them in place. Paint your face white with dark circles around your eyes! For an even neater effect, sprinkle baby powder in your hair.
