Our neighborhood always does Trick or Treat the Saturday evening before Halloween. Here are my kids in their costumes last night!!

We made this costume from my old high school graduation gown. He already had the hat and the wand so it only cost $3 for a bottle of fabric paint from Joann Fabrics. I'm not artistic so the stars didn't come out as nice as I was hoping, but he still liked it!!

With the exception of the jacket, which belonged to my grandfather, his entire costume came from thrift stores. The hat, shirt and pants came from Goodwill and the whip came from the Salvation Army. Everything cost about $10-12 total!!

Quoting ILive4This:
Nah, not really. But, it does pay to spell everything right when you're taking a dig at someone.
Quoting Anonymous:

Quoting ILive4This:

I like them both. Homemade costumes are alot better then store bought ones that everyone and their dog is going to wear. Nice job!
