DIY Zombie Costume: Dirt & Splatter

[@jean-marihardy6568]

I used this to create costumes for my husband, our 3 year old and myself for a zombie birthday party. It looked awesome!! Thank you so much. Wish we could have shared the photo. I threw everything in the tumble dryer and did not smell like coffee at all.

[@krathjen1]

Yeah my question is really wondering about the smell?

[@GoodwillIntl]

There is a hint of coffee, but once dry it's not overwhelming.

[@Chelsea_9424]

Can u use water colors?

[@TheMistyakapyt]

Can this be washed before using? The smell would be overwhelming :(

Well if you want it to look less real yeah this is the way to go. I made my own costume. The best thing to do is make tea or coffee. You can use bolth too. Adds more of the dark and faded colors. It weathers it down. Weathering down the clothing is the start. You got to do it or it just won't look right. Or well you can see it as it just started. So there still clean? Just have cuts? But yeah my way is years later. The clothing are filthy. There old. So thats what why weathering is so emportant. Once you are done with the coffee and tea. You got to let it soake over night is the best way to do. Then when done. You got to wash it. Then its best to use sand paper. Ruff up the clothing. Pick where. Add holes then sand it down so its thin. Then you will have the old look with holes. Then you don't need pant. The paint is to shiny. Also wont soak in very good. So . I like to use fake blood. Spray it rub it in.

It's a good costume but if you're a girl you should put on an undershirt
