Frugal Halloween Costumes: Dog
The best costume I
ever made was probably the cheapest and easiest. I also made it the day
before Halloween. I bought a pair of thermal long underwear (plain and
white), infants hat and mittens (they came as a set) that tie under the chin,
and black fabric paint. First I took the mittens and sewed (with a needle
and thread) them on the hat to look like dog ears. Then I took the black
paint a dotted the hat and underwear shirt and pants. I found an old
t-shirt and rolled it up and dotted that too. I pinned the tail on the top
of the pants on back. Some white face paint and some black dots and a
black nose. I bought the outfit for my 1 year old and it was a size
3T. They are very clingy and stretch out well. He wore it for two
years and the next one will wear it this year and he wore it last year.
They wear it all the time to play dog. It really comes out cute, and
really has lasted. -- Valerie from FL
