This Loofah Halloween costume was … Read more
We wanted an original group idea and searched all the stores, and decided on a DIY “The Loofahettes” Loofah costume. We took 15 yards of each color tulle, wrapped ourselves once over and used that as a base. Then we took bunches and started stapling and safety pinning like crazy. Underneath we just wore a … Read more
A few years ago I had a bunch of small cavities and I was in and out of the dentist’s chair several times over the course of a few months to fill them all. I wanted to translate that experience into my Halloween costume that year. I wanted to be a dirty, grungy, creepy version … Read more

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 … Read more
