Handmade really awesome costumes for babies, kids, adults, groups, and pets!.
Randi whipped up this clever paint brush costume for her daughter with materials from the dollar store! She used 2 brooms and a piece of poster board to make the paint brush hat! Randi made the extra large paint pallet out of foam board. Oh and the whole costume only cost $3! That is one cute paint brush!

Samantha did an awesome job turning her little girl into Kate Perry for Halloween! She painted styrofoam balls and hot glued them to a white dress! Then you need a blue wig, of course! You could make this costume tonight!

I’m absolutely in love with this costume and how easy it would be to recreate. You can find this idea for a DIY raining cats and dogs costume via Real Simple and all you need are rain boots, a rain coat, umbrella and a couple of stuffed cat and dog toys to adhere to the umbrella. The rest of the look can be completely up to you and your liking. So simple but super cute!

This costume could easily be recreated for an adult costume but it’s such a cute idea for a little girl. Do It Yourself Divas created the best lil’ DIY black cat costume around! The costume requires a wire hanger, black feather boas, hot glue, black elastic, black long sleeve onesie (can be dyed if needed), black leggings or tights, black shoes, black felt, hair clips and a little black makeup to paint a nose and whiskers on your little kitty. I love this costume!

There isn’t an exact tutorial for this DIY Carl from Up costume but if you get creative you can achieve the adorableness that Stephanie did when she put this together for her little boy Rizden. From what I can tell you’ll need just a few items to create the walker including pvc piping and tennis balls then just grab a bunch of colorful balloons, a bow tie, a cardigan and some black rimmed glasses (she used 3D movie ones) to finish off the look. Seriously it’s too cute for words!

Jenn at Rook No. 17 posted a this tutorial for a DIY hot air balloon costume that her friend came up with and it has to be one of the most creative costumes I’ve seen in awhile. Not only is it creative but she breaks it down so it looks relatively easy to recreate. She used one of those XL balloons, a large basket, ribbon, yarn and four brown paper lunch bags for the look of the hot air balloon plus extra supplies to dress her kiddo up to look the part. Such a fun, unique idea!

I would like to go back in time and dress up as this for Halloween one year! I’m pretty sure everyone loved/loves legos, well you love them until you step on one barefoot, but thankfully there’s no stepping on this life size version. Country Living shows that with a rectangular box, eight circular boxes, glossy spray paint and glue you can easily create this cool DIY lego block costume.
