Making Avery's Halloween Costume


Happy Halloween!
This is not the first halloween costume I have made for Avery, but it is my favorite so far. I used a lamp shade that I spray painted pink and then made clip on spinders so she can wear the lamp shade bottom. The top is just layers of pink polar fleece that I cut like to look like frosting. I then sewed on pink ric rac around the bottom of each layer of "frosting" to give it a finished look. Last I sewed on white pearl beads to make sprinkles. We added a pearl necklace and bright red bow for the cherry on top. It was lots of fun and I was surprised it turned out as good as it did.
