Another Snake Costume...

What is it with us and snakes?? I never liked reptiles and neither has hubby too much. Big G had his 2nd grade Talking Zoo today. He was a Western Diamond Back Rattlesnake. I used some fabric I had leftover from when I made a shower curtain at our old house. I put a coat hanger at the end of the tail to make the rattler curl up. I used felt for the diamonds, stripes, and eyes. I stuffed it and sewed it to a baseball cap. I had to use clear elastic to keep it on his head, it was a bit heavy. At least he was sitting at the talking zoo, otherwise he may have had a headache from the weight of it!
