Cindy Lou Who and The Grinch Costume

Me and my roommate are juniors in college and were sick of the whole "dress half naked" Halloween costume trend. Last minute we ran to WalMart and a few thrift stores and found exactly what we needed to be a quirky pair. For the Grinch costume, I found a white sweater and got some felt to cut out the "I love Xmas" detail and hot glued it on. Then I borrowed some green tights from a friend, got a wreath from the dollar store for my crown, and a ton of green face paint! For Cindy Lou Who, we got a yard of red fabric and hot glued some white trim to make her little coat, and then put a water bottle in her hair to make it tall and Who-like! It took about an hour to do the face paint, hair, etc and we were so impressed with how good a last minute costume turned out! Heres the plot twist: we show up to the party, and NOBODY else is dressed up!!! So me and her are the Grinch and Cindy Lou Who in a house full of people in normal party attire. But, it was such a good costume that we had to flaunt it!
