Homemade No-Sew Adult Scuba Diver Costume
This is a NO SEWING REQUIRED costume!
How to make a cheap homemade Adult Scuba
Diver Costume:
Start with one pair of Black
Adult Footed Pajamas
Make a
Scuba Mask
from Black Posterboard.
Use newspaper first - you'll need to adjust it to your frogman's head,
eyes and nose. The little triangular cut in the small part of A is so
that the Frogman isn't breathing directly onto posterboard all night.
 Make a
Diver's Belt
from Orange Posterboard & a Belt (or fabric). We used felt.
See D below right.
Cut a bunch of rectangles, cut two slits in each, thread the "belt"
thorough them, tie around waist.
Make a pair of
Flippers
from Blue Posterboard or Craft Foam. We used Craft Foam.
Use newspaper first - you'll need to adjust it to your Frogman's feet.
Then draw lines to give it a 3-D effect.
Staple it to a ribbon or strip of felt - tie around ankles.
DO NOT make them too long - just to the ends of the feet - and tie them
pretty high on the ankles - do not make your Frogman trip!!!
Make a
Divers Air Tank
from Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, etc. Posterboard.
See F, G & H below.
Start by making a cylinder and taping it shut.
Cut 2" strips in the top and bend them down - staple them in the middle
until you can't fit the stapler in there any more. Then just tuck them
under the strips you've already stapled and tape them on the inside.
