Black and orange are gay colours. Crepe pape with its comparatively low cost is good for costumes that need to last only long enough for an after- noon or evening of merriment.

Crepe paper has its crinkle in the nanw width of paper, so for skirts and capes, it is often necessary to flounce these to get the length desired.

Do not hesitate to stitch and gather crepe paper on the ma- chine. Use a long stitch, and stitch just as you would fabric.

For the Witch costume, buy ten-foot fold of black mepe paper. Cut in half crosswise or the 20" way. Cut off 25 ft. for 10-ft. folds hat.

Remaining 2% ft. is split in hinif crosswise, giving you two 10" strips. Those are sewed to- gether and stitched to bottom of cape to make it 30" long.
