Coolest Shower Costume

Homemade Shower Costume
This was my eight year old daughter's idea. We took an inexpensive shower curtain and hooks, hula-hoop, shower brush, lots of silver air-duct tape, cardboard tubes, empty soap box, small hand towel, saran wrap and tinsel.
She wore a shower cap, mud face mask (green face paint),a pink turtle neck and leggins, finished off with shower shoes(filp-flops).
First we wrapped the hoop with air-duct tape(u can use duck tape too), attached the paper tube, covered it with the tape and added a funnel shape cone (we found silver paper at the craft store that worked perfect!) and then taped the clear tinsel around the inside for the "water".
We made the 2 straps to hold it on with the tape also. With the shower curtain we cut and hemmed it, hung it on the hoop, make sure the opening is in the front so she could trick-or-treat in it. Then just added the accessories. She carried the bath brush, we attached the towel over the "shower rail", used the saran wrap for bubbles and attached them all over,and painted the soap box, wrote "SOAP ON A ROPE" on it and attached it to the shower head with string.
She won lots of costume contest and had lots of fun-getting "Caught in the Shower"!
