DIY costume in progress

Currently making a toad costume for my 3 month old for Halloween. My other son will be Mario or Luigi and his cousin will be the other one and the only girl cousin is going to be princess peach! I thought they would be pretty easy costumes to get our hands on or make for the 4 of them. Wondering if we should make the stroller a Mario cart car 🚗 #halloween2025 #lemon8contest

... Read moreCreating DIY costumes for Halloween is not only a fun activity but also a wonderful way to bond with family, especially when planning themed outfits for young children. Choosing classic characters like Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad adds a playful and nostalgic touch that many guests will love. When making a toad costume for a 3-month-old, comfort is key. Using soft, breathable materials ensures the baby stays cozy and happy throughout the festivities. Adding features like a mushroom cap hat and a spotted vest can bring Toad to life without causing discomfort. For siblings and cousins dressing as Mario and Luigi, consider simple overalls, colorful shirts, and hat accessories that capture the iconic look. Princess Peach’s costume can be enhanced with elegant yet comfortable fabrics and subtle accessories suited for little ones. An imaginative touch is turning the stroller into a Mario Kart car, creating a standout mobile centerpiece that ties the whole family’s theme together. Using lightweight cardboard, vibrant paints, and safe attachments, this DIY stroller makeover can be both eye-catching and practical. Balancing creativity with ease of implementation ensures DIY costumes are enjoyable for everyone. Planning ahead, gathering materials early, and incorporating playful details make Halloween preparations memorable and exciting. Sharing your progress on social platforms can inspire others and build community engagement around seasonal celebrations.

This was literally my first time doing something like this and it WASNT easy but I did it :) it’s definitely not perfect but I love the imperfections. 💞 it cost around $20 I think for the hoodie and supplies :) #Lemon8Diary #coquette #embroidery #jacket #diyjacket #bows #coquetteae
