1. Cut the bottom off the leaf bag.
2. Measure the length & width of the bag's top
and cut a piece of cardboard that is 4 inches longer than the bag
on both the length and width. Fold up 2-inch flaps in the front
and back of the cardboard.
3. Cut an oval hole in the middle of the cardboard
big enough for your waist. Make a small hole with a nail in the
4 corners of your cardboard to attach a piece of string to the
2 left sides and another to the right side. The string will be
the straps to hold costume up. Apply glue to the 4 flaps on the
cardboard and glue inside the top of the bag about 4 inches from
top.
4. Fill the top of the bag with Groceries using
clean empty food containers such as Milk, Cereal, Eggs, and snacks.
Make sausage links by inserting inflated balloons into a long nylon
stocking leg and tying knots between the links.
5. Make a milk carton hat (or other box) by washing
the container cutting the bottom off and then cutting an opening
for your face in the front panel. |
