Looking for a simple Halloween costume you can put together in no time at all? This DIY skeleton top is super easy to make. And it’s super cute, too! Depending on where you’re wearing it (to the office, at a Halloween party, or just for passing out candy), you could easily dress this costume up or down. And for some more Halloween flair, you can pair this DIY skeleton top with our DIY skeleton earrings shown in this picture.

The Perfect Ribbed Top

We love creating iron-on designs because they make everyday items more unique. While you could also cut your shirt to create a ribbed look, we think using a glittery iron-on to make your own DIY skeleton top is a lot more fun.

We used a black glitter iron-on for our DIY skeleton top, but you can use whatever color you like best. Silver glitter would be another good one. Or you could try orange, black gold, or even pink glitter! It might also be fun to get together with your friends and make skeleton tops in different colors for everyone. We would love to see your skeleton outfits when they’re ready, so please share them on Instagram and make sure to use the hashtag #MadeWithLia.

To make this DIY skeleton top, all you need are a few tools and materials. Making this top is easy peasy, especially if you’ve transferred iron-on designs before. If you have any questions, just comment below!
