I think Pippi longstocking is a super fun girl costume...striped tights..braids with bendable wire in the to make them stick out..freckles..impr ovise from there with clothes from the closet.

oh man i totally forgot about pippy longstocking. I dont even think she has seen the movie.

ahh oh man im making those for my daughters halloween party!!!

great job

i remember many years ago, i went to my landlords hosue around holloween time and her son was miserablebecause shewas forcing him to be something that he didnt want to be. As I climbed up the stairs I saw a big thing of cardboard. I asked my landlord what that was and she replied, Oh his costume. She proceeds to pull it out slip it on him and Like the little kid in A Christmas story who couldnt move his arms, he turned around and he was a giant peice of toast.

hahahaha oh my!!! thats effing hilarious

ahhh...that costume is so cute!!

i have to show my kid this pic!!

id love to have about 20 of them to give out at my daughters halloween birthday party!!! do you have an etsy? do you sell these online anywhere? Do you make mini ones?

karmellah, great ideas...ill pass them onto the little one in hopes to spark her imagination!!!


Thesingingllamas, yea i dont know how that could be a costume. Theres no creativity in todays costumes.


chattyKathi, i was actually thinking about a ninja. She draws them all the time so maybe ill put a twist on it.

Thanks guys

ohhh good ideas!!!! these kids are in for a great/gross party!!

I HATE store bought kids costumes!!! I got lucky because my son never wants to be anything we see in the stores lol. Last year he wanted to be a hitch Hiking ghost ala' disney. I made him a pair of knickers and he had knee socks with an old tux jacket we found at a thrift store. I fogged out the jacket with white hair spray dye stuff to make it look ghostly. Bought him a short top hat and covered it with spider webs. Completed the look with a long stick and a hanky bag at the end. He looked way too cool lol. This year he is going as a zombie cowboy. I'd say pick your kiddos brain for ideas, mine always surprises me.

aww...id love to see a pic of last years costume!! It sounds really awesome
