Mummy X Suit

[Louella Kammann]

Thanksfor the great idea about the socks over the shoes! My son has a great mummy costume but I was stumped on what to do for shoes. Since I have already used the tea stain with great success on the body of the costume, I am going to do this with a white pair of large socks as well.

Love the socks idea for shoes. I found that if you put sandals on, then put a knee high white socks on. If you wear medium, get large so they can slide over the sandal/feet and rest comfortably on your ankles/calves.

hi! I love the tutorial, but for my mummy costume I would like it to be a bit more greyish, what should I use to get the gauze more grey?

365 Halloween response: Adding some gray sounds like a good addition that would add depth to the brown color added by the tea. We suggest using about 1 teaspoon of black acrylic paint (you can get a bottle for $1 at any craft store) with 1/2 cup of water, to form a very watery gray solution. (Definitely play with the ratio to suit your desired level of gray.) Add gray accents by using a paint brush to apply the solution directly on the gauze. Or add an overall gray affect by dipping the gauze into the solution just like you would with the black tea. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out!

Want to scare everyone as a Mummy this Halloween? It is really easy to make a great costume from simple items that you might have lying around the house, or purchase one cheaply from a thrift store. Follow this easy how-to to find out how you can have a great mummy costume this Halloween.

The mummy outfit can be obtained from the Able Sisters for 700 Bells or from the doctor at the Hospital in Happy Home Paradise when selecting "My knee hurts." and either choosing "It's a stinging pain." or "It's a dull pain.".

In Happy Home Paradise, this item is unlocked for use in designing when doing a vacation home request for Clay, Gruff, Lucky, and Tabby. The item can also be unlocked when tasked by Lottie to design the hospital. In addition, the item can be used to change the clothing of a villager or the player either during or after the designing process for screenshot purposes.

The mummy outfit can be obtained as a master clue scroll reward from Treasure Trails. The outfit provides no beneficial stats and is only worn for cosmetic purposes. The outfit can be stored in a Mahogany treasure chest in the costume room of a player-owned house.

Of the jade suits that have been found, the pieces of jade are mostly square or rectangular in shape, though triangular, trapezoid and rhomboid plaques have also been found. Plaques are often joined by means of wire, threaded through small holes drilled near the corners of each piece. The composition of the wire varies, and several suits have been found joined with either gold or silver. Other suits, such as that of King Zhao Mo, were joined using silk thread, or silk ribbon that overlapped the edges of the plaques. In some instances, additional pieces of jade have been found beneath the head covering, including shaped plaques to cover the eyes, and plugs to fit the ears and nose.

According to the Book of Later Han, the type of wire used was dependent on the status of the person buried. The jade burial suits of emperors used gold thread; princes, princesses, dukes, and marquises, silver thread; sons or daughters of those given silver thread, copper thread; and lesser aristocrats, silk thread, with all others being forbidden to be buried in jade burial suits.[1] Examination of the known suits, such as the two found in Mancheng, has revealed that these rules were not always followed. Considering the vast size of the country, and the relatively slow means of disseminating information, it is not surprising that the materials and techniques used in a jade burial suit occasionally differed from the official guidelines.

A jade burial suit was extremely expensive to create, and only wealthy aristocrats could afford to be buried in them. Additionally, the process of manufacturing a suit was labor-intensive and is estimated to have required several years to complete a single suit.

Despite their beauty and cultural significance, Jade Burial Suits were not without their practical challenges. Because they were made entirely of jade, they were heavy and difficult to move, and required a great deal of strength and manpower to transport. In addition, the suits were often too small to fit the actual body of the deceased, and were instead placed on a wooden effigy or mannequin that was placed in the tomb alongside the jade burial suit.

For many years, many archaeologists were unaware of the existence of jade burial suits. Texts referenced jade boxes or coverings related to a corpse, but it was not understood that the texts were describing full-body, fitted suits or shrouds, made of jade plaques.[2] The discovery in 1968 of two complete jade suits in the tombs of Liu Sheng and Dou Wan in Mancheng, Hebei, finally proved their existence.

It is now believed that jade burial suits were actually relatively common among the wealthiest aristocrats of the Han dynasty, but that over the years most have been lost due to the activities of grave robbers.[2]

Tombs from the Spring and Autumn period, belonging to the dukes of the Jin state in Quwo, were discovered in which the body was covered with small jade pieces once interwoven with silk.[3] The jade suits of Liu Sheng and Dou Wan consisted of 2,498 plates of solid jade connected with two and a half pounds of gold wires.[4]

Since the first jade burial suits discovery, there have been multiple additional findings. In 1973, a jade burial suit belonging to Prince Huai of the Western Han dynasty was discovered in Dingxian, Hebei. It consisted of 1,203 pieces of jade and 2,580 grams of gold thread.[5][6] In 1983, a jade suit was found in the tomb of Zhao Mo, the second king of Southern Yue, in Guangzhou. The red silk thread used to bind the 2,291 jade plates represented Zhao Mo's immersion into local culture. It is exhibited in the local Museum of the Mausoleum of the Nanyue King.[7] In 1991, a jade burial suit was excavated from a group of monumental tombs of the King of Chu, Liu Wu, in Xuzhou. This magnificent, life-sized jade and gold burial suit survived very much intact, thereby possessing a high value for artistic appreciation.[8]
