Using a glue gun, line a bead of hot glue around the bottom of the craft roll. Attach the small felt leaves around the bottom of the roll making sure they are sticking to the hot glue.

Add more hot glue towards the middle of the roll and attach the large leaves. Next, add hot glue to the top of the roll and tuck in the large leaves. Fill in any open spaces with extra leaves.

Using a black Sharpie marker, add small details to the fabric. Now let's put it all together!

I tie dyed white capris and a tshirt green to go with the whole pineapple theme or the child can wear plain green pants and a shirt. I just love the fun look of tie dye!

These pineapple sunglasses could not be more perfect for the costume! With a pineapple drawstring tote used as a trick or treat bag, your pineapple costume is ready to go!
