How To Build a Nun Costume for Halloween!
Putting Together a Fun (or Strict) Nun Costume
This Nun Costume was created to accompany my husband to a neighborhood costume party. We wanted a couples theme, but nothing risque because there would be kids at the party. Once we came up with idea it was so much fun to put together! At the party I wandered around the dance floor with my ruler measuring the distance between the dancing couples - This cracked everyone up!
