KIDS: DIY toilet costume

I bet you’ve never seen a DIY toilet costume before?! Mother and son created this costume together with white duck tape, an aluminum foil handle on a card board box, and a fresh new, foam toilet seat from their local home improvement store. I also love that the candy bag is doing double duty! The white trash bag is attached under the toilet seat rim so that the candy givers can open the lid and allow the candy to fall right into the bag, ha! The bag doubles to camouflage the boy’s lower body as a toilet! Perfect!
