Baby Costumes and
Dress Up Time

Whether it be just for fun, or for the Halloween season, making your own costumes can be a great creative outlet and so much fun! Why spend a fortune on something your baby will only wear once or twice. If you've got an older baby, maybe in the toddler years, then making costumes is great for play time. Little ones love to play dress up when they are just getting into that pretend play mode. Handmade costumes can be a great toy as well!
Besides the fun for your toddler, making these costumes can be fun for you too. I always look forward to Halloween just for an excuse to let out my creative side. Get creative and have fun with it! Not to mention the great photo opp's and smiling little faces.

Here are some easy and low budget ways to come up with cute costumes for babies and toddlers alike. Make em' for Halloween or just for something fun to do and play with

Baby Tutu

Make a Baby Tutu! This is a super cute and very easy to make costume piece. Great for any dress up time or for putting together a fairy princess, or ballerina costume.

Magic Wand

Make a Fairy Wand. A good costume accessory or cute toddler toy. Match it with the tutu to make a great fairy princess costume.
My toddler just LOVES hers!

Bunny Ears

These Baby bunny Costume Ears are pretty easy to make and are cute as can be. All they need is a little black nose, some whiskers, and a cotton tail. Add these ears to a pink, blue, or white footie sleeper for the perfect DIY costume.

Halloween Costume Pattern
