Homemade Skeleton Costume

I bought a pair of black sweats, some white felt, and double-sided iron on adhesive to create the costume.
My inspiration was this Pottery Barn skeleton costume, but the price tag was just too steep to justify for a single wear outfit.

So, I drew the bones on plain white paper to use as a pattern for my felt.  Then I cut out my felt and adhesive material based on that pattern.  Before starting the ironing I top stitched around each bone in black.  Tedious?  Yes.  But, worth it?  I think so.  It adds quite a bit of character and it's how the PB one is, anyway.

Then I just ironed on the bones in the appropriate places.  I would have sewed them on but you really can't get into sleeves and pant legs with a sewing machine.  Unfortunately, I ended up hand stitching the bones on after ironing them on because they kept falling off.  So sad.

Here's the finished project on my 5 year old, complete with glow-in-the-dark skeleton gloves that we found at the dollar store.
