Shower Costume

Time: 1 hour

Effort: Quick and easy - no sewing required

Materials:

  • Hula-hoop
  • Shower curtain or old bed sheet
  • Shower curtain rings
  • Thin rope
  • Flip-flops
  • Shower cap
  • Skin-colored leotard
  • Funnel
  • Rod
  • Tinsel
  • Foil
  • Tape

Instructions: Tape or glue the funnel to the rod. Cover both in foil. Tape tinsel to the inside of funnel so it looks like water sprinkling out. This is your showerhead. Put the shower curtain around the hula-hoop. Make two shoulder straps out of the rope, and tie to the hula-hoop. Cut the shower curtain to a non-tripping length. Don the skin-colored leotard. Hold the showerhead at the appropriate height above your head. Wear the flip-flops and shower cap.
