Coolest Loofah Halloween Costume

I got my idea from this website for a Loofah Halloween costume. Everyone at the party loved it, they thought it was so funny. It took FOREVER to make though, because I had to wear it for 2 different parties, so I decided to sew it instead of using safety pins.

I had never touched a sewing machine before in my life, so I just got some really stretchy material and made a tube dress so that it would just stretch to my body, then I added a strap to it so it would stay on. I ended up going back to the fabric store quite a few times to get more netting, but I think I ended up getting about 20-30 yards.

I just started making loops at the bottom of the dress and went all the way around the whole thing (making them bigger in the middle and smaller at the bottom) then I sewed a rope to the middle of it. There was probably about 60 people at the party and I definitely got the most compliments.

This took forever! I probably spent about 7 or 8 hours making it. And it cost about $40.
