2 yards of shredded muslin, soaked in 2 cups of water + 2 cups of coffee and a couple drops of black (acrylic) paint (air dried) and wrapped over a pair of Hane's long johns = one of my favorite kid costumes of all time.
This year's spin was the addition of a skateboard, and a few cool new tricks to debut in costume. Because, not much beats a skatemummy when you're the best skater in all of second grade.
