The kind of costumes to be made is limited only by your own imagination. For example you can dress a little girl as ""the Great Purnpkin". A simple design cut from an orange "Glad" garden bag and trimmed with green garbage bag leaves. It is decorated with Inexpensive stick-on letters or decals available at any hardware store. And let's flot forget Mom and Dad. Adult costume parties are becomning more and more popular and once again there is no limit to the outfits you can make. Try an "Adam and Eve" costume made of "Glad" fig leaves. When you have decided on your outfit assemble the garbage bags you will need. Remember it's fun to combine colors. Sketch out your pattern with chalk or other marker by tracing around existing clothing or paper patterns. Cut out pattern pieces. To make seams place wet paper towelling over the garbage bag and run thé tip of a medium hot iron down the seam line. You may wish to reinforce the seams with rnasking tape. An inexpensive soldering iron from the hardware store will also do a fast, neat job of seaming intricate patternis. When buying the iron be sure its no more than 23 watt and use the sharp cutting point attach ment. Decals, stickers, and contact paper can be used to add color and if the children will be out after dark remember to use some reflector tape as a decorative addition to their costumes. You're sure to have fun with these inexpensive Hallowe'en costumes and for ideas on practical clothing and items to make f rom "Glad" bags ail year round write to the Glad Rags information Bureau, P.O.
