A little craft foam and green leaves can get you a cheap and easy DIY Poison Ivy mask for a Poison Ivy cosplay.

MATERIALS USED:
Poison Ivy Mask Template (available free in my patterns vault)
Green leaves
2mm craft foam
Scissors
Pencil
Stretchy string
Hot glue gun

This video is a small part of the full Poison Ivy costume tutorial from my new book: Cosplaying When You’re Broke (available on Amazon or Smashwords or wherever books are sold), which shows how to make awesome costumes without breaking the bank.

I found that I liked using green maple leaves for my mask better than generic ivy leaves. The maple leaves look more like real poison ivy leaves than generic ivy leaves do, and I also found they were cheaper.

So what are your thoughts on superhero/villain masks? I’ve always found the masks a little funny. They don’t really seem to do much in the way of hiding the character’s identity, and yet they seem so popular. 😂
