Hi everyone! When I was in fifth grade, we had Colonial Day. It was too late to order a costume, so my mom made me a homemade Colonial girl costume.
My hat was made of a cylinder-shaped pillow case tied with a black ribbon around my chin. I wore a black shirt and leggings. On top of my leggings, I wore a long, black skirt I borrowed from my Aunt. I wore a black jacket with antique buttons that I also borrowed from my Aunt. I wore my mom’s white lacy apron. I was wearing black, fancy shoes.
It was so hot in my costume! My friend borrowed it this year and she looked really cute! I probably should have worn the jacket OVER the apron. Silly me! I’m glad me, my mom, and my Aunt are creative. My mom and I are now good at sewing (that may come in handy…).
Good luck with your costume!
that is so cool!
that rocks girl you did so good it sounds great for my Halloween costume and costume contest at school
