HALLOWEEN COSTUME IDEAS:
ELF COSTUME
This is a NO (real) SEWING REQUIRED costume! We used staples and safety pins
How to make an Elf Costume out of a pair of adult footed pajamas:
Start with one pair of Red Adult Footed Pajamas
Make an
Elf Hat
from Green Felt with Red Felt Elf Ears
(Felt is available in a 6 foot wide version for about $5 a yard from fabric stores)
The hat in the photo was made by just taking a triangle of felt, stapling it closed, turning it inside out, then stapling the ears to it.

Make some
Elf Trim
from Felt. Cut a zig-zag along cuff, ankle & belt lengths. Pin them to yourself.
Give yourself an
Elf Complexion
from Green Eye Shadow.
Much easier to wash off than green body paint!
