I want to be a "tall drink of hot chocolate" for Halloween this year. What do you guys/girls suggest that I do for the costume? I'm doing this from scrape and I'm not a seamstress, so clothing ideas... anything is appreciated.

I would go to a hardware or building supply store and try to get a big cardboard tube that you could fit into. If they are too heavy or not wide enough to walk comfortably, just get a couple hoola hoops and make your own tube out of brown construction paper. Then you can decorate it with cloth or however you want.

Hi smray7
I would use 4 or 5 brown body pillowcases, sew, pin or staple them together then put cardboard inside them, then take a reg. pillowcase & glue or sew on fluff or pillow stuffing on top of it, cut out a place for your head & arms, make a handle with a brown tube sock stuffed with newpaper or stuffing. That might work? Witchy
