halloween ideas? anyone?

Oct 11, 2010


guess what I'm making?


lets be honest.... they've been in pieces for weeks...
but somehow i can't start another project till i finish these stinking costumes for my girls...
(notice my scorched sewing table, shame on me!)

 we really like dressing up in this family! this is one of my favorites! (about 3 yrs ago)
(check out the drool down the front of "Velma's" turtleneck)

*fun fact... i used to play a character at an amusement  park, can you guess which of the above i played? HINT: i was "type cast" and its not what you think!

 k, you guys, i need some help, my hubby is a 4th grade teacher (cute huh!) and every year we try to come up with a silly costume

 last year..

 the year before he was a BANANA... and he is sort of dying to be a giant HOT DOG this year!

any ideas? remember he is 6'4" it has to be a BIG costume!
we will go get him the giant hot dog unless you guys come up with something better!

  1. That is so cool that your husband is a teacher. Hmmm...I have no idea...a bag of chips? That is what my son wanted to be before he changed his mind. I was going to make a shirt for either me and my husband that said "All that and..." and then he would be a bag of chips. :)

    The costumes you made for your girls are so cute. Again...I have no guess as to what character you played. My brain doesn't seem to be working very well today.

  4. Those Scooby Doo character costumes are absolutely ADORABLE!!!!! I just wanna squeeze 'em.

    I saw a cool costume online once... A boy and girl were WIND! The guy wore a shirt and tie and the girl had on a big skirt/dress. The guy attached his tie to an overturned umbrella and had his hair slicked back! It was pretty cool. The girl had the same thing though I don't remember it being as inventive as the guy's.

    CLOTHED MUCH, a modest fashion blog

  7. Love the blog and all the fun creative ideas. I have a question is your husbands name Cory?? He looks a lot like some one I went to school with, just wondering? Hot dog costume would be fun, I dressed my husband as a giant a lady bug one year, kinda fun.

  11. I love that you guys get into Halloween! My husband is that same height and it is so hard to find a costume to fit!

    However, you should totally post your girls costumes on our Halloween Costume contest - they are adorable! Check it out here:
