This homemade costume for women entered our 2013 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Macy, the 'Pinata' costume creator:

I found this idea on the internet but I wanted to go all out on it. I bought sweatpants and a zip up sweatshirt from Wal Mart as my suit. I used all different color streamers for the fringe. I would hot glue three rows of one color streamer, and then cut the streamers vertically to create the fringe look. I kept going up the sweatpants with different colors till I got to the waist band. When I hot glued the streamers on the waistband, I put a cardboard box in the waist part to stretch it out, so the hot glue wouldn't make the waist band stiff.

I did the same thing on the jacket with the alternating streamers. Also, I used party hats for my horns, and I put all different lengths of streamers together and tucked it into the back of my pants for a tail. It was time consuming, but definitely worth it!

Fringe the streamers before attaching them. To fringe them, fold them into multiple layers and then cut through all the layers avoiding all folds to keep them in one piece. This should make the project go much faster.
