Step 1: Gather materials

You will need:

- dark green dye (if your sweatshirt is not this color to begin with)
- tan fabric
- scissors
- needle and thread
- a sewing machine (optional, to expedite the 6th step)
- a CD
- something to mark on the sweatshirt

The dye did turn out a little too light, but Snorlax is sort of a greenish color.

Electrify him and it would be the end for him.

My mom made a tummy cutout of white material some years ago that was sewn to a golden-yellowish sweatshirt as part of a "Simba" costume I wore for school, and I used the same cutout my freshman year in college four years ago that I had safety-pinned (from the inside) to a darker tannish-gold one to be Tenderheart of the Carebears. I wish I had known how to maker ears though - those are cool! Although, I did have this chincy golden bear mask I got from a dollar store that was relative the same color and there were already ears on it, so I just had like a fathead with my hood pulled up. Still, if I ever do it again, I know how to make it, now! Thanks! I would highly suggest the safety-pins though for anyone who doesn't want to keep the costume long - that way you can undo it and use the hoodie for normal wear (mine was actually a zip-up, so I had to cover that, but it was just as effective, really).
