Purchase a tiara and costume jewelry from a costume shop. These items are usually less than $15. Buy about two or three yards of tulle from a fabric shop. Use twine and a needle to cinch it into a skirt that fits around the waist of the ghost costume. Fasten it with safety pins, Velcro or a snap.

Beach Bum GhostFollow the directions in the previous paragraph to create a simple ghost costume. Purchase an old beach towel and sunglasses. Wrap the towel around the waist on the outside of the costume. If the costume will be worn at night, be sure to choose sunglasses that are not very dark. Women or girls who want to complete this costume may also draw a bikini top on the ghost or wear one on the outside. If desired, use bright fabric paints to create suntan lotion streaks on the cheeks, forehead and nose. It's best to wear sandals with this costume if the weather is decent.
Cowboy GhostUse the instructions in the first example to create a simple ghost costume. Use fabric shears or sharp scissors to cut a fringe in the fabric under the arms. Cut along the entire length of the arm. If desired, cut a fringe along the bottom of the costume. Purchase a toy gun, holster and gun belt from a toy store or costume shop. Purchase a cowboy hat and boots. It's usually possible to find these items in a large thrift store for less than $20. Buy a cheap bandanna to complete the look.
