Homemade Halloween Costumes For Kids

I read an interesting post today about 6 Healthy Treat Ideas for Halloween and realized that Halloween is just around the corner.
 
I am now in panic mode trying to figure out what the kids should be dressed as. With Maya, the last two years were easy – we just slipped on her costume (delivered by her wonderful aunt) and it was only for photo purposes.
For her first Halloween, she was only a few days old.
 
 
Olivia most often picks her own outfits and my only job is to apply her makeup. Last year she was dressed as a little devil.

This year we are going to a Halloween Birthday Party – so we need to figure out costumes not only for girls but for ourselves as well.  But first, let`s start with the kids.

When looking for ideas, I found these wonderful homemade costumes and thought it was a good idea to share them with you. If you are interested, you can use the links to help you navigate how to make the costume(s) of your choice.

Which one of these is your favorite? Will you try any of them? Or maybe you’ve already tried one in the past? If so, I would love to hear about your experience and if possible see a photo of your creation.

Happy dressing up!
