I've known for several weeks that our church Halloween party was going to happen last night. It seemed a little early in the season to have to get costumes ready but I figured it would be a little less stress to have to come up with costumes so far in advance....you know, so that way we weren't running around at the last second trying to come up with ideas and finding all the stores are out of every costume. Much to my dismay my kids COULD NOT come up with any concrete ideas on what they wanted to be so I was left scrambling at the last minute anyway. They literally left me with about 48 hours to put their costumes together...(which wound up being fun cause I have begun a new obsession with making tutus!!)
I am so happy with how everything came out and now we are all set for Halloween, right?! (Except for Brinton who still doesn't know what he wants to be and unfortunately I don't think he'll look too cute in a tutu)
So here are the final products:
Sweet Daisy Elise
Daisy Tutu CostumeOur little Lady Julianna
Ladybug Tutu CostumePunk Rock Princess Ashlynne
Punk Rock Princess Tutu Costumeand our 10 minutes before we leave Pizza Chef Brinton
Little Liam was the cutest monkey you ever did see but we forgot to bring our camera to the party and I didn't dress him till we were there...so no pics...for now. Sorry, but he really was very, very cute! :)

Your tutu’s came out so cute! I looove to make them too. The craft store in my town just had a sale on tulle, so I had to go buy some. Belle is going as a little devil with a red tutu, but she was going to be a ladybug with a red and black one. Soon you will be trying to think of excuses to make tutus. I made one the same colors as our local collage for when we go to football games, and my husband is a big Green Bay Packers fan, so I’m going to make her a yellow and green one. Rachel just made her girls red and white ones for Christmas pictures, and then there is Valentines... well, I hope you deal better with the addiction than I have. ;)
Oh believe me I've already thought about long red and green ones for Christmas pics of the girls!!!! Tulle is only 99 cents a yard so I might just buy them out...lol!
ok those are seriously so dang cute!! I wish I could sew, scrap or even craft... I guess my day will come eh? :) I am very impressed!
Alida You did a great job!!! I love them all. I was going to do the same for Emma but then found a costume on sale I really liked. I am impressed my little Alida!!!
You are so creative! I love the clever use of all the tutus. I need to learn how to make them.
Those costumes were way cute! Good job! I can't believe you had your Halloween party already though. Wow. So I'm guessing they don't do a trunk-or-treat then. :)
For the THIRD time..... I think they are adorable. Alida is the coolest person in the world. Everyone should leave comments for her to praise her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUAH!
OMGosh. Those are the cutest tu-tu's. wherever did you get the idea. you are so frugal. I bet your husband just loves you to death you little creative penny pincher you. This would even make TAMN so darn jealous. Can I say like wow again, all yur friends are so frikin awsome, I wish I was cool as you.
I love the costumes especially the punk rock princess!
I'm SUPER impressed! They all look darling!
Teresa's got me into these things too! Well, the girls. Great job, adorable!!
