Frugal Halloween Costumes: Clock
So far, the best
costume I have made for my kids is a clock. My 3 yr old son wanted to be a
grandfather clock. I found a box that was a little bit wider than him.
I painted it black and slipped it over his head. I then cut holes in the
sides for his arms. I cut a hole in the front for his face which I
surrounded with black craft foam. The hole in the foam was not as large as
his head, so it was a soft way to hold it on his face. I pained gold
numbers around the opening on the craft foam. I cut the hands out of the
foam and stuck them to his forehead with double stick tape showing 3:00.
My daughter was 1 at the time so she was a mouse. A gray sweat suit with a
tail made from scrap gray fabric and a little stuffing and a headband with felt
gray & pink ears attached was all it took. They were very cute!! -
