Costume Instructions

Prep Time: About 15 hours

Costume Materials
The book is made from foam core. I used box joints and dado joints to hold it together. The cover was hand painted with acrylics. The rest of the cover was spray painted.

Costume Instructions
Pick out a favorite book. Use either foam core or a box. Paint the box to look like the book. Cut out holes for the body to go through. Use ribbon to hang book on the shoulders. Either make or buy jumbo glasses. dress in all green. The beanie hat was hand made also. While trick or treating I realized that a cheap clamp on reading light would iluminate the cover perfectly.
