Let’s talk about frugal, do-it-yourself costumes. I was able to find a ton on Pinterest! Here are a few of my favorites:
Who can resist a big bowl of spaghetti with meatballs? Not me! (from Comics for Nerds)
This one from Nerd Nirvana might be a bit over-the-top for your church fall festival but it would be great for a laugh!
Oh, how easy this would be! I love the “raining cats and dogs” ideas from Babble.
And… I think this might be what we choose for next year…
If you missed my ideas:
, I receive a small commission but will not know what you purchased and it will cost you nothing extra. You can even use your gift cards. Thank you for supporting our family.)
Hi Penny,
What fabric did you use for the red “bra”? I love the idea!!
I have not actually tried that but it looks like just a cotton fabric. You could probably find something with some stretch in the clearance section of the fabric store and that would work great!
This would be GREAT for a Breast Cancer event. The bra looks like it was just altered camis… put on, take one strap off and fold under.
What a GREAT idea, Kelly!
My boys were Thing One and Thing Two, and it was so easy.
Red sweatshirts and sweatpants.
A beanie hat, or similar hat, with a blue boa hot glued to it.
A piece of felt with sticky backing cut into a circle with Thing One or Thing Two written in Magic Marker, then the felt goes onto the front of the sweatshirt.
The cost for both costumes was $27.
And they were so incredibly cute, and really warm.
I bet that was so cute. I have been thinking about doing a Dr. Seuss theme one year. I might have to snatch these ideas. Thanks, Jennifer.
