Walk like and Egyptian.... Mummy

It's coming up to Halloween and we all know the elves sometimes like to drop by and put in an appearance.

What do you do though when they've left their costume in the North Pole and you only have a few hours to get them dressed!!


Mummy Time!


What you'll need:

Bandage ( I find a good stretchy crepe bandage is best)
Elf

Yep that's it - simple







Step 1

Start wrapping...and wrapping...and wrapping.

Try to keep your bandage pulled reasonably tight throughout it will make it easier.

I tend to start at the legs and work my up way one...down the other...then back up again around the middle then repeat with arms.






If you find it easier you can also cut the bandage into strips to use on the legs/arms but I just keep wrapping as really a mummy can look a bit bulky in patches.





Once you're done have fun setting your elf up in various positions ready to celebrate Halloween!
