I decided I wanted to go as an original Homemade Popcorn Halloween Costume made of a red striped bag of popcorn.
I made the front and back pieces out of foam board and them wrapped them with fabric. I attached the sides with more of the original fabric and made the stripes with satin red ribbon. I wrote the “popcorn” out with fabric paint in an old style font. I made suspenders out of that same red ribbon and decorated them with bows.
To top it off I put popcorn on a string similar to Xmas decorations and bobby pinned it in my hair. I handed out popcorn all night.
This is totally going to be my costume this year :)
So cute. Definitely doing this, this year!
I’m such a kid at heart and love Halloween. I decided to be a box of popcorn this year. My friends and I are going out bar hopping for the occasion and I was concerned about being able to sit in my costume so I’ve been surfing the web for ideas and just came across yours. Sooo cute! I love how you put your own spin on it with the ribbon suspenders. I hope that you don’t mind if I copy!
Carolyn it’d be great to see your version for this costume, please share once you’re done.
Julia I’ll definitely share!
Oops that last comment was from me which you probably already figured but just thought that I’d clarify anyway
I just love this costume, so fun and cute at the same time. I’m trying to make it on my own and wonder how you did on the sides, do you use the foam board there as well? Thankful for some help. thanks!
