Here is a clever idea for a Halloween costume that uses ordinary household items. It's a great way to recycle items lying around the house. If you need a costume at the very last minute, this is your solution. Maybe you're redecorating a bathroom and are just going to throw out that old shower curtain and rod. Don't do it. You can put them to good use instead. Create a really unique costume that the kids will love with an old shower curtain.
Step 1
Tape the funnel to one end of the curtain rod using the duct tape.

Step 2
Cover the funnel and top half of the curtain rod with foil. This creates the shower head.
Step 3
Tape the tinsel to the inside of the funnel to create the water running out.
Step 4
Attach the shower curtain to the hula hoop using the shower curtain rings.
Step 5
Tie each piece of the rope into shoulder straps, attaching it to the hula hoop.
Step 6
Cut the bottom of the shower curtain to the top of your feet so you don't trip.
Step 7
Put on flip flops, shower cap and hold the curtain rod so the shower head is above your head. Your costume is all done!
Tip
Glue a small rubber ducky on top of the hula hoop for a quirky additional touch. Use a mesh shower bag for your trick-or-treating bag.
Warning
Parents should accompany younger children wearing this costume as it could obstruct their view.
