Yeah, for Halloween!!
So excited as my son can actually GO OUT trick-or-treating this year!!! Poo
r thing, his costume screams "mommy-made"!! ;) Luckily, it's strong enough to hold up one night & he's too young to know & the big one, at least I choose a costume for him of something he truly LOVES instead of just picking a random one off the rack!!
So I picked out Super Why! for him this year. He LOVES the show, from the very get-go when he first saw a television! Also, I did think how easy it would be... alternating lime green/blue short/long sleeve shirts & pants/shorts. I originally thought I'd cheat & buy a blank lime green T-shirt, but couldn't find one. So I bought a pattern for pajamas (bonus-I can actually make him pajamas too!) made lime green pants & a shirt. The shirt didn't turn out as great as I would have wanted & then my husband DID find a lime-green T-shirt at the craft store, so I did end up cheating later. Drew the logo on the shirt & back of the cape (made from remant, just like the lime green I found) & painted with fabric paint-blue, green, gold, glow-in-the-dark & glitter. Nice thing about the little ones is their small size; sometimes it is a pain making small things, but also you can grab a yard remnant at the store & it's so cheap!
Oh, I also forgot a picture of his Why-Writer plush that I made to go with it!! At least it's more of a "clothes-costume" so he won't get agitated & rip it off. the belt I made with a scrap I already had that
velcros together & the cape velcros to the shirt.. nice & easy!! I skipped out on the Super-Duper Computer... oh well. The mask was crocheted (forgot that in the picture too!), but I don't think he'll wear it. If I just got it on for 1 second to hope for a picture, I'll be VERY lucky!
