Coolest Do it Yourself Lego Family Costume

We were inspired by the Lego Group costume on this site, that won last year, and made our own do it yourself Lego family costume.

We followed their perfect instructions and made our own versions based off of Lego Minifigures we found at the Lego Store and on eBay.

We did the Disco Dude Minifigure, and used 800 cotton balls, and spraypainted them black. All of the torsos were hand drawn using markers on white posterboard. The chef hat is made of 4 inch strips of posterboard as well. For the pirate costume, we used a photo of a Lego Skeleton as a template, and made the crossbones out of hand drawn Lego Bricks.

Our little block was a resized cardboard box, and we cut cd-sized Styrofoam cirles out and covered them in blue poster board and hot glued them to the box.

Materials used:
Card Board Boxes
Duct Tape
Hot Glue
Styrofoam Sheets(home depot)
Poster Board
Sharpies
Cotton Balls
Netting from the fabric store for the mouths
Elastic/Velcro for the legs
Cupcake Wrapping Paper for Chef Legs

This was awesomely fun, and so fun for our whole family!
