This is a really easy to make, unique costume for halloween, I haven't seen any like it. The cool thing about this costume is that it also lights up in the dark with 2 battery operated lights on the top inside which makes it safe on Halloween night.

Prep Time: About 6 hours

Costume Materials

black material
black electrical tape
piece of clear vinyl
construction paper
cellophane
super glue
clear rocks
cardboard box
fish border
fish stickers
2 lights
batteries
and a turtleneck MOST of which was purchased at the local dollar store.

Costume Instructions

Cover a cardboard box with black material, cut out front and holes for head and arms. Trim corners and sides with electrical tape. Cover front with clear vinyl.
Cover entire inside with construction paper (blue) and back of tank with fish border, then recover the entire inside with colored cellophane.
Glue clear rocks to inside bottom of tank and glue a couple of fish to the front (I used fish that I cut out from the left over fish border).
Glue 2 battery operated lights to inside top of tank. Top it of with a torqouise turtleneck with fish stickers on it to give it a 3D apperance.
There are many things you can take away and add to this costume to make it unique in your own way.
Have fun!!
