For the costume, you will need:

Cutting the Tape

Now we need to cut strips of tape for the bones of the skeleton

You will need to cut out the following:

  • 6 strips for arms
  • 1 strips for torso
  • 6-8 for ribs
  • 4 for legs

When cutting these think about the size of the black trousers and jumper - basically ensuring that they match up.

Finishing Up

The last stage is to simply lay down the jumper and trousers. Stick the glow in the dark tape to them in the shape of a skeleton. Done :)

Obviously the more creative you are the better the costume will be.

Hints for a better costume:

  • Draw bone shapes on the glow in the dark tape and cut around them with a craft knife
  • Add a Balaclava and Gloves to the costume with glow in the dark shapes
