If you’ve waited until the last minute to get or make your child’s Halloween costume, don’t panic there’s still time. The selection at your local store, or even online might be getting very picked over. You can still make a really cute Halloween costume from items you might already have on hand in your craft stash. The costume doesn’t have to be complicated to be cute and to be really adorable on your child.
Here are 10 of my favorites:
- I love this Beautiful Butterfly Costume
- The baby lobster costume is very popular, but you don’t have to buy it, you can make your own baby lobster Halloween costume.
- My son wants to make this Ninja Costume
- Quick and easy idea for a pirate costume.
- I can’t make a list of kid’s homemade Halloween costumes without including the classic witch costume.
- Pink Pig easy Halloween costume, wonderful for infants and toddlers, wrap them in a blanket and make pigs in a blanket.
- A totally adorable homemade Where The Wild Things Are Max costume, she has instructions on how she made it in the comment section. (This is my favorite on the list)
- Thomas and Friends train costumes, perfect for a group of kids, friends or siblings.
- With The Frog Prince coming to the big screen soon, I thought I’d include this cute frog costume.
- Last on the list I have to include the classic robot costume, all you need is an old cardboard box and some silver paint.
Don’t forget we’re having a Halloween costume photo contest. When you make that really adorable Halloween costume take a picture and stop back to enter it in the contest.
