Halloween 2020

Costume Number one of THREE!

Little Red Riding Hood & Company

Little Red Riding Hood & Co

This costume was a simple DIY.

My daughter Avery stole the show as the poor old grandma who gets eaten by the big bad wolf. She was waving her DIY cane around at the “young’ns” lol. For her costume, I glued a large piece of white fluffy fabric onto an old winter hat and twirled the back into a bun. I also glued white cotton balls all over the front to mimic tight white curls. For her glasses we punched out the lenses of an old pair of sunglasses, threw on the polka dot bathrobe and VOILA! Little old grandma!

Little Red

Little Red Riding Hood

Miss Red already had a red cape and a red tutu, so she was set from the get go. No DIY’s needed here :-)

Big Bad Wolf

The BIG, BAD, Wolf

DIY List:

  • Furry gloves

  • Furry chest

  • Wolf hat

  • Wolf tail

My littlest one loved being the BIG and BAD wolf, as you can see! He got to work on his roarrrr. For his costume I DIY’d a few things.

  1. His furry little chest. I bought a cheap remnant of furry fabric from the store and glued it onto an old white undershirt and threw on a flannel PJ shirt over it.

  2. His furry paws. Those were gloves that I cut the fingers off and glued the matching fur onto the tops and palms. A hot glue gun really is the Halloween DIYer’s best friend.

  3. His wolfie hat. That was a tan winter hat that already had dog hears on it! I hot glued (again) the matching fur on to the hat. Once the fur was on it you couldn’t see the existing dog ears because the fur was so fluffy. I added longer ears I cut out of brown cardstock so they would show up a little better.

As you can see they had a blast with this one!
