How to Make a nun costume

"How to Make a nun costume" cover image

Whether you're a sinner or a saint, making a nun costume for Halloween requires no divine intervention.

You Will Need

* A long black dress or graduation gown

* Rope

* White poster board

* Scissors

* Black fabric

* A hot glue gun

* Glue

* A crucifix or rosary beads

* Tunic sewing pattern (optional)

Step 1

Make a habit from a long black dress with long sleeves, or a graduation gown.

For added authenticity, purchase a pattern for a tunic at a fabric store and sew the tunic yourself.

Step 2

Tie a piece of rope around your waist as a belt.

Step 3

Take a strip of white poster board, and cut it to fit around your head.

Step 4

Cut the piece of black fabric into a large square so that the veil is the length you desire. Hot glue the fabric to the poster board ring to complete the veil.

Step 5

Accessorize the costume by adding a crucifix or rosary beads.

Fact: In 2008, an Italian priest attempted to organize a beauty pageant for nuns, but his superiors quickly suspended the event.
