I wanted to add more Dalmatian so I made the jacket a Dalmatian inspired fur with a red lining. I added the … Read more
I bought a white seashell bra, a green ruffle bottom angled skirt, and after several stores a bright red wig. The wig was the hardest part to find since it needed to be long, have the right kind of bangs, and be the perfect shade of red! The wig was also the most expensive part … Read more
Last year we decided (well…I decided) my husband and I would dress up when we took our daughter trick-or-treating. My 3 year old wanted to be Minnie so I went off that. Its always cold here in October so we had to make sure to layer up. For my daughter’s costume I used black sweatpants, … Read more

We made these costumes over a matter of weeks (we always get really excited for Halloween). We got a lot of interesting reactions!

My Rocketeer costume was tons of fun to make. I made my rocket pack from scratch. Everything I used, I could find in my household soda bottles, scope bottle etc… The helmet was the worst, it took the longest. Having to cut, sand and place the lenses in was by far the hardest part. I … Read more
I saw a picture on Pinterest of a little boy dressed as Mr. Fredrickson from Up. My son was going to be 18 months around Halloween, and I thought that would be the cutest costume for him. I wanted to do more though, so I decided to be Kevin, the bird, and I convinced my … Read more
I wanted to do something out of the ordinary and thought Jack would be great as a disguise. I have never seen anyone do it, so I challenged myself to do it. For the outfit I used a dress suit that I bought at Salvation Army for $6.99 and then painted stripes on it. I … Read more
