How To Make A Frankenstein Costume

Apply the green face paint to the face area. Once dry, add scars with the black face paint.
Cut a piece of poster board that is the height of the child's head. Curve this to make a cylinder and tape the ends together. Cut the entire face area out of the cylinder. Place onto child's head with their green face poking through the face area. This will form the classic shape of Frankenstein's head. Glue onto the ends of the headband.
Paint 2 wine corks (or two halves of a wine cork) with the silver paint. Let dry. These will be frankensteins bolts. Glue onto the ends of the green headband. Let dry. Place headband on the child's neck, with the 2 bolts on the side and the open end of the headband facing the front on the child's neck.
