This costume took me 4 days to create for a Halloween event at my job. The only two things that I bought brand new was the prison suit and wig. Everything else I borrowed or already had at home. The cape was created from used graduation gowns I bought from a thrift store. Overall costs was $50 on costume. I got a lot of compliments from my coworkers and friends.
D.I.Y. McDonald’s Hamburglar ? ?
1. Red Tie – Borrow, buy, or make from construction paper. Add burgers on the tie. ??
2. Cape – Buy new or make your own. I made mine with two graduation gowns from the thrift store. One black and one yellow. I cut off the sleeves and used fabric glue to glue the yellow gown on top of the black gown. I left the collar of the black on to used a safety pin to keep it on my neck. I added McDonald’s friends on the back of my cape to give it a little more character.
