Lilly decided to be a goth looking bat or butterfly for halloween. I finished her dress and overskirt but I am not sure if we should do bat wings of butterfly wings.............................. I can just do the clotheshanger thing and shape em like bat wings and cover em with black fishnets and spray em with some glitter, but I really think bat wings will look best with it!!
cool thing is the dress cost probly less than $8 to make, better than spending $25 on a kids halloween costume at wal mart or something
*gulps* I really, really need to learn how to master my sewing machine. We ordered our three kids' costumes from an online site, and spent a whopping $140.00, and I still need to get a few more things to complete them. At least they've been getting use out of the costumes though, and it's not even Halloween yet. They LOVE them, and I was so pleased with the quality, I had to write the company because I was so beyond thrilled. They were made by a dress-up company in Miami, Florida and they are of excellent quality, not cheaply made like those costumes at Wal Mart and whatnot. I mean, I can't BELIEVE that they can charge $25.00 for those things! I could see maybe $15.00, but $25.00? Not with that type of quality. But yeah, when I see that you spent maybe $8.00 to make your daughter's costume and I spent a small fortune for mine, makes me feel pretty sheepish. :&
hippychickmommy, i woldnt feel bad, i normally go insane for halloween and spend tons of money on decorating the house, and the kids, and me, and we make a big huge deal and throw a party LOL this year tho i dont think there will be a party, just trick or treating and maybe a carnival or something, see if the kids can win some costume contests and then give all the parents a flyer for my website HAHAHAHAHAHAHA i need to get to work on my costume too, all i have so far is my boots and some red and black striped tights LOL i may make a matching costume so me and lilly can both be bats =) i wonder when she will start to realize i am a big dork and decide she doenst want me to dress matching her anymore HAHAHAHAHAHA
