Have you every heard of the show Gator Boys? For those of you that don’t know, it comes on Animal Planet and it’s about “two extraordinary alligator trappers who risk injury and death to hand-capture nuisance alligators that have invaded the back yards, swimming pools, garages and bedrooms of Florida Everglades residents.” Kimberly from a A Night Owl whipped up these awesome handmade Gator Boys costumes for her kiddos since they love the show! The costume is no sew and involves just a little painting a crafting up an alligator tooth necklace and cowboy hat. Camouflage pants and a blue bandana and your all set!

What kiddo doesn’t want to be a super hero princess?! Marissa from Raegun Ramblings hand sewed this really awesome handmade She-Ra costume for her niece. What a nice aunt! For those of you that don’t know, She-Ra is the princess of Power and debuted in 1985 in the movie The Secret of the Sword. She-Ra reappeared in a He-Man video game in 2012. You definitely need to be a decent seamstress to make this awesome costume, but there are very detailed directions over at Reagun Ramblings!
I know that not everyone will appreciate this costume, but I for one think it’s pretty clever! Nicole posted this picture on the Really Awesome Costumes facebook page, and said her 1 1/2 year old son really enjoyed pushing his candy in the cart versus carrying it! Another great thing, this is a no sew costume and if you live where it’s cold for Halloween, just add some layers to complete the look! They key elements to this costume are a beanie, a beard, flannel, and that grocery cart filled plastic bags and gloves.
So, do you think the homemade bum costume is appropriate or not? There was lots more discussion about it on this handmade kid costume round up post, if you’re interested!

I love the rubik’s cube! I wish I could say I can do the whole cube, but that would be lying. I can, however, do one side really good and really fast, ha! Emily turned her husband into a life size rubik’s cube with a cardboard box, spray paint, felt, and a hot glue gun. I for one, am super duper impressed! Oh and I love that this costume could easily be made for a kid too. Another fun idea, would be to make the squares velcro so that you could actually move them around!
To see the detailed handmade rubiks cube costume tutorial check out Emily’s blog, The Benson Street. Be sure to check back next week because we’ll have a new costume tutorial every day next week!
