Coolest Do it Yourself UP Group Halloween Costume

Our family loves the movie “UP” so we all picked characters we wanted to be and set out to make a do it yourself UP group Halloween costume. My husband and I shopped thrift stores for weeks to get our costumes completed. My husband found a shirt, sports-coat, bowtie and even the four-legged cane (complete with tennis balls we found outside a local tennis court) for “Mr. Fredrickson”.

For “Russell,” I found a cheap second-hand shirt, shorts, and orange bandanna and borrowed the scout badges and orange shoe laces from my niece. I crafted the pennant from craft foam.

My daughter wanted to be “Kevin” the bird so we bought a plain black sweatshirt, some feather boas, some craft foam and set to work. My sister-in-law sewed all the boas to the sweatshirt; cut out Kevin’s head, beak and eyes out of the foam, glued them to the top of the hood and added draw-stings to make it stand up on her head. We added black tights and black shoes.
