DIY: Costume - Katniss Everdeen

Still don't have a costume for Halloween? Don't worry! I've come up with a few last minute costume ideas for you. The best part is, you can make these costumes for under $10!

If your closet is anything like mine, these costumes should be easy to put together just in time for Halloween. All you will need to make are the props. I'll show you step-by-step instructions on how to make the props used in the costumes seen below.

     Ladies and gentlemen, let the 74th Hunger Games begin! Only after you get your outfit together of course. This costume is basically all pieces put together from my closet. You will need a black shirt, black jacket, green cargo pants, and black combat boots. In this tutorial, I will show you how to create Katniss' arrows and quiver. If you don't happen to have a mockingjay pin, you can create one by simply printing it out on gold card stock paper and attaching a pin to the back. 

MATERIALS NEEDED: Feathers Wooden Dowels Black Ribbon Black Leather Strap Paper Towel Roll Tape Scissors Glue (Optional)

And there you have it, your very own set of arrows!

Happy Hunger Games! Or Happy Halloween, I should say. And may the odds be ever in your favor.

Yours Truly, M.
