Rosie the Riveter Costume

Here's Secundus as Rosie the Riveter! We've been meaning to do this costume for years. When she was little, she was a natural model and was always posing sweetly when there was a camera around. But then she found out about Rosie and now constantly flashes me this pose!


You can get the image of Rosie's name tag to print from my Pinterest board.  I copied it to a word document, sized it just right, then printed and laminated it with packing tape before hot-gluing it to this too-large dress shirt.


She's just wearing black slack pants on the bottom.


 A very important element is Rosie's head scarf.  There's some instructions on how to tie it (super easy!) on my Pinterest board.  We were going to use a regular red bandana but then realized we had this scrap of red-and-white-polka dot fabric that's just perfect!


Up next: The Statue of Liberty!
