Find out how to make this simple yet creative Halloween costume. Follow these directions and you can dress up as a wax covered cotton swab.

Materials Needed:

  • White Hooded Sweatshirt
  • White Sweatpants
  • White Shoes
  • Fiberfil
  • Craft Glue
  • Yellow Paint
  • White Face Paint

Instructions:
Have someone wear the hooded sweatshirt, with the hood up and tied, to make constructing the costume easier. Glue a large amount of Fiberfill onto the hood so it looks like the tip of a cotton swab or Q-tip. Spot it generously with yellow paint. Let it dry.

Put on the white sweatpants, shoes, and sweat jacket. Put up the hood and tie. As a finishing touch, paint your face white.
