Took newspaper folded at the half, cut stripes up to about 2" to the fold. Sewed newspaper near fold line on white lightweight cotton. Adjusted to fit wearer...put elastic at top, along with some straps to help keep it up. Covered bodice with flat newspaper, sewed together for strength, width. Newspaper half-sleeves. Curl idea found on internet -- make cap from plastic bag/masking tap, stick on curled newspaper -- I couldn't get mine to curl with scissors, so wrapped strips around pen. Gave the wearer my mask from party a week ago. Ta da ..girl with recycled gown with curly crown.
