Creating a Grim Reaper robe is quick and simple.
The Grim Reaper is the quintessential Halloween costume. The large, hooded robe is crucial in creating that look of mystery and darkness and it's also a warm costume choice in fall and winter. Throwing together a Grim Reaper costume at the last minute can be accomplished quickly with these simple guidelines for creating a black robe with no sewing machine and just a few household items.
Instructions
1. Fold the large piece of material in half the long way.
2. Drape the fabric over your head using the new middle fold as the marker for the top of your head. You can adjust how far forward you would like the cloth to drape over your face.
3. Pull the sides of the cloth up slightly over your shoulders until it feels comfortable and creates a shelf for your shoulders to rest.
4. Clasp the front of the robe together near your neck using the clasp or pin.
5. Secure the black belt around your midsection or leave the robe hanging in a long drape for a looser look.
