This idea came to me because I admit, I love coffee. So much in fact, that I turned into one.
I bought a very lightweight garbage can from the hardware store. It came with a lid. I cut out the bottom of the garbage can so that my legs would be able to come through. I then spray painted the can and lid completely white.
I then as best as I could, I drew the lady on the front of the can with green and black paint. I did the same on an open cardboard box.
I wrapped the cardboard around the can and, using a lot of hot glue as well as Gorilla Glue, glued it on to the can. I then cut out the hole on the lid to represent the sipping hole. I glued the lid to a baseball cap with the bill cut off. The last thing I did was to cut out holes to attach bungee cords so that I could carry it on my shoulders.

How creative and original. You did a lot of work and the results were worth it. I love this costume and how you achieved it.

I love this one, I had to share it with my BFF as a potential costume idea for next year. We love our 'bucks!
