Harry Potter Cosplay: Moaning Myrtle!

 Harry Potter Cosplay: Moaning Myrtle! (It was brought to my attention that I spelled "Myrtle" wrong...such a muggle!) Everything about this whiny bathroom dwelling ghost is so fun!  A DIY costume is simple and easy! Pigtails and bangs.  If you don't have bangs just loop and bobby pin hair like we did. Round glasses Gray tattered clothes...we thrifted a mans gray button up Gray tie White shirt (or slightly gray)  And face paint! We used this fantastic paint I just used a little water and white paint and brushed it all over her face. Then I used some copper and watered it down and painted the sides of the  cheeks to look sunken skeletal structure almost...and a little on the lips.  Don't forget to pout and whine! Great for a last minute Halloween costume! Get a group together and storm Hogwarts!   This post published on Doodlecraft first

Repeat for all the marker lines drawn on the shirt. Use zip ties or rubber bands to secure... Place on a cooling rack on top of your plastic table.
