I saw a picture of this online and knew I HAD to recreate it for Halloween this year. I’ve been playing around with special fx makeup for years now, having worked in several haunted houses when I was younger. This took about 3 hours to make, including making the flesh mask. I created this look … Read more
This costume was inspired by the Glowy Zoey baby stick figure costume posted sometime last year. I liked the idea, but I wasn’t a fan of LEDs as it produces an obvious pixelated look. I liked the look of EL wire, but as that had already been done many times over, EL wire is also … Read more
My four year old son has always been obsessed with trains, the Thomas and friends toys and videos in particular. His favorite train is Gordon the strongest and largest train of the crew. He insisted on being him instead of Thomas or Percy the smaller engines. In addition to being the largest train my son … Read more
I started making my own costumes a few years ago, when I realized that to stand-out I couldn’t just go buy something off the rack. I never thought of myself as a creative person, but I started experimenting with different materials and kind of got addicted. Each year I’ve tried to find a topic or … Read more
My name is Andrea and I transformed myself into Subzero from Mortal Kombat! I was actually inspired by my fiancé :), he was so excited to dress up this year as Scorpion. He wanted me to dress up with him and I knew everyone would assume I would dress up as a female character, so … Read more
This year Connor went as Batman and the Batmobile. Daddy again had to start with the foam outline to make sure all brackets will lay on the right spots of the wheelchair/stroller to support it. We use standard sheets of foam core. The first layer is always the outline layer and bottom structure of the design … Read more

My 3-year old son liked it so much that he asked to be Voltron for Halloween this year. After checking tutorials on YouTube using foam mats, I decided to try to … Read more
This is my creation from duct tape. I love arts and crafts but one thing is for certain, I never learned how to sew and so this is where the duct tape came into play. This is a toddler astronaut costume, made head to toe out of duct tape. I used hand me down snow … Read more
I know there are a lot of voodoo doll couple costumes out there, but I wanted to start with real burlap and make them from scratch. I bought a bolt of burlap and pre-washed it so it shrunk up and was a little softer to the touch. I made my own patterns and lined everything … Read more
Every year it’s a challenge to come up with a good idea for a Halloween costume, especially for my 3 year old boy who is now influenced by boy things: superheroes, cars and trains. I prefer to stay away from superheroes and movie characters when making costumes for my son. This year I wanted to … Read more
The costume was easy to put together – the hardest part was finding the correct “highlighter” body suit color. After that, the letters and reflector stickers were at the local hardware store. The red hat and orange safety flag were also purchased separately online. While going trick or treating, my son had a blast with … Read more
First, I had to collect a lot of boxes to construct most of it. The head, hands and feet were constructed out of cardboard and masking tape, then paper mâché (newspaper, flour, water, and glue) and painted with acrylic paint. The paper mâché was messy. It’s been years since I’ve done it, but it was … Read more
