Coolest Loofah Sponge Halloween Costume

This Loofah sponge Halloween costume is easy to make and fairly inexpensive. It was all my daughter’s idea. It was awesome.

The ladies at the fabric store loved the idea. All you need is lots of large safety pins, netting and white rope. First, we bought 16 1/2 yards of pink netting (any bright color will do). She is 10, so depending on the size of the person wearing it, you will need more or less netting. Next, we gathered and pinned the netting in different places along the fabric to give the costume a puffy look to it. Take the rope and pin it to the shirt making a loop.

After that, I wrapped it around my daughter. I started by pinning it to my daughter’s shirt on the side. I suggest that you either dress in the color of your netting or in all white. We wrapped it around her body from her shoulders to a little bit below her bottom. Pin the other end to the shirt as well and pulled the loop of rope out so it hangs freely.

There you have it! She entered a costume contest and won! She painted red circles on her face with lipstick and carried a loofah on a stick. She also wore it on her lips in a really dark red. I hope you try this!
