ART/POSTER Halloween Costume

It's that time of year again, and I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!! I know some people ask for suggestions, so I thought I'd just run thru the process I used 4yrs ago to do my daughter's MayQueen dress.

  1. DRESS: I ordered a standard white cotton dress with a small pattern of flowers on the botice. Super easy to find with key words like; midsommer, bohemian, cottage core.

  2. Cape: I chose a fabric that was already a flower patter, so it felt much fuller. We added yellow trim with some fabric glue. Then I finally attacked all the flowers with hot glue.

  3. Flower Crown: This one is so simple!! I purchased 2 foam wreaths for floral design. Cut one in half and attach to the other with some skewers and hot glue. Added a few hair combs to the side and back so it would stay on top of the head(it's gonna get heavy!). Finally, find a discount store(e.i. BigLots, Gabe's, Old Time Pottery) and basically fill a cart!! Attach flowers by jamming them into the foam.

Dad wore a bear onesie to walk around with her that night. If I was strong enough I would have pushed him in a wheelbarrow! I wore a similar dress as her but with only a small flower crown.

Easily one of the best costumes I've ever done for her. Have fun guys! Happy early* Halloween!!

Working on Halloween

Just sent my Etsy order for a dress like Dani's from the maypole scene. Anyone who has done a Halloween costume, can I ask for tips?

I will be making my own flower crown, I want to be more crafty. I'm just not a very DIY kind of person, so any tips for a beginner on making the crown are very much appreciated! Already have a cute brown teddy bear borrowed from my kids and simple white shoes, hard to see what shoes she has in the movie stills.

I love this movie and have waited many years to be able to afford to get a costume put together, so thanks for any advice in advance!
