SPRING HALLOWEEN COSTUME

1. You will need to take your cotton rope outside into a well ventilated area and use the silver colored spray paint. Spray the entire length of the rope, front and back.Make sure to well saturate the rope entirely. Set aside and let dry.

2. Take your sweat pants, lay them on a table. Now take your silver colored rope. Start at the bottom by the ankle and attach the rope, loosely like a spring that has been stretched, with the safety pin. You will then wrap the rope in a loose circular motion all the way around the entire leg of the pants, so the rope goes completely around the leg front and back. Use the safety pins to attach the rope as needed. Do this up to the band of the pants, then go back down the other leg and end at the ankle. Attach the end with a safety pin. Cut off any excess rope.

3. Take your shirt and start at the bottom band. Attach with a safety pin at the end and wound the rope all the way around the shirt front and back, again loosely like a spring that has been stretched. Attach with safety pins along the way.

4. Continue wounding the rope completely on the shirt and ending with the arms. Once you end at the wristband of the sleeve, attach with a safety pin and cut off any excess.

5. Put on your sweat suit. Use your silver face paint and paint your entire face silver. Take a fine paint brush and the black face paint. Paint fine black spring like circular lines on your face.

6. You can either use the silver stocking cap for your hair or you can get some silver washable hair spray and spray your hair. Put on your silver gloves and now you are officially "Spring"
