Last in our series on fruity costumes (check out the strawberry and raspberry if you missed them), is the tropical pineapple!  That leaf collar and green hat is the Halloween gift that keeps on giving. So useful for so many costumes. Details on this costume after the jump and see more in our Halloween costumes series…

We started with a tan onesie (we actually dyed it ourselves), and a green cap.

1. For the pineapple hat we used a toilet paper roll and glued green felt leaves to it, starting from the bottom and heading up to the top.

2. We used some thick green bias tape to tie it around their head. You could use green ribbon or elastic too.

3. For the onesie, we cut out square pieces of yellow felt and glued them down in a linear, diamond pattern with hot glue or Fabri-Tak.

4. For the green leaf collar  we used the same one as the baby strawberry costume and the raspberry costume, so you can find the tutorial for making that right here.
