Follow these simple directions to create a Wood Nymph costume.

Wood Nymph Costume

Time: 3 hours

Effort: Quick and easy - no sewing required

Materials:

  • Light green tights
  • Light green leotard
  • Glitter hair spray
  • Glitter
  • Body glitter
  • Green face makeup
  • Wings
  • Green ivy vine with leaves
  • Extra ivy leaves
  • Green yarn
  • Hot glue gun

Instructions: Take lengths of yarn and glue ivy leaves to them. Glue yarn randomly onto the green leotard. Glue ivy leaves to wings. Make wreath large enough to fit on your head (like a crown) out of ivy vine. Put on costume and spray glitter hairspray on everything, including tights and leotard. Put green face paint on your face, neck, and arms (if leotard is short sleeved). Put body glitter on face, arms, and neck.

Other Details: Wings can be purchased at most discount stores or drugstores. WalMart definitely has them. Or you can make your own. Just cut the wings out of poster board and cover in foil or glitter. Attach two elastic loops to wings and place over your arms.
