I love making Halloween costumes. I will be sad when my kids don’t want me to. Thea wanted to be Rapunzel from Tangled specifically. Jones wanted to be an Enderman from Minecraft (for the record I didn’t know what that was and he doesn’t play Minecraft except at friends houses but somehow knows all about it.)
Thea’s dress originally had puffed sleeves but they looked weird so I ended up removing them and allowing her to wear a shirt or coat under her dress. It’s made from quilting cotton i had in my stash and ribbon that matched. I made her lizard and pan from things in the recycle bin and tape.
Joness costume is made from a painted morph suit + the big square head covered in tape with purple sticky foam around the eyes. I also made his sword from cardboard and reinforced with tape.
For trick or treat our neighborhood association requested everyone stay distanced and do little “tables” or stations for the kids so you could see them but separated. Everyone made cute displays, shoots, music, slides, light up things and it seemed very safe.
Bonus costumes. Jones wore his age 2 Spider costume to school (still fits) and Thea was JoJo Siwa for her school as well.
