What age group is this costume for?
Elementary School
Middle School
High School & Beyond

Estimated time required to make this costume:
30-45 min.

Difficulty level:
Almost as easy - some sewing

Items you will need: (Hit your return key to start a new line)
A sweatshirt (should be bigger than usual)
A turtleneck (EXACT SAME COLOR AS SWEATSHIRT--cannot be connected to sweatshirt)
Two arms from mannequin (close to your color skin)

Instructions:
Put the turtleneck on. Next put the sweatshirt on over it. Cut two circles out of the sweatshirt where your REAL arms would be, underneath where the REAL sleeves are. Stick your real arms out of the cut-out holes with the matching turtleneck so it looks like your arms are really coming out of there. You should have your arms be comfortable. Next stick the fake arms up the sleeves of the sweatshirt. It will look like you have four arms: your real arms and the two fake arms! If you're a girl, or to be more festive, paint your fingernails AND the fake fingernails black and orange, or put matching Halloween-ish jewelry on.

Other information to consider:
Have an awesome Halloween, get a lot of candy...and especially, good luck with the costume!
