DIY Skeleton Mermaid Costume
"Make a DIY skeleton mermaid costume with iron-on vinyl and a black dress to refashion. It’s a creepy cute costume that’s so fun! I think adding a pink mermaid heart is was sealed the deal. She loves that there’s a touch of pink, and that it has mermaid scales like a mermaid tail! This is the first time she’s worn a maxi dress (that isn’t a dressup) and she loves feeling so grown up. You can see her watching her tail swish as she walks. I refashioned a black women’s dress for this project, but if you can find a black maxi dress for little girls that will also work. Adding the iron-on vinyl makes for professional but easy details."
