A Christmas Story has always been one of my favorite movies and now that my two youngest sons are the right age I decided to make them Ralphie and Randy Parker Costumes from A Christmas Story. We got the greatest comments all night. My little Ralphie had the facial expressions down pat and my little Randy really could not put his arms down.
I made the Ralphie Bunny Costume from a bunny pattern with a few variations to the hood as well as adding the ears and face on the feet. The Randy snow suit costume was made using the same pattern with lots of variations such as eliminating the feet adding buttons and pockets etc. The snow suit was lined with a cotton material and stuffing was added between the lining and the outer material. I added wire to the bunny ears to give them shape as well as to the ones on the feet. We found a pair of glasses at a costume store and painted them the right color. The scarf was one I had laying around.
It was so great to see my favorite movie (well actually OUR favorite movie) come to life with this Homemade Ralphie and Randy Parker Costumes from A Christmas Story.
