home made halloween part one

i thought it would be just too cute to dress emma and her cousin up as pebbles and bamm bamm for halloween this year and sarah indulged me. i finished jesses costume on thursday and finally finished emmas today (it just needed buttons and some snipping!) so here they are!



i couldnt find the orange i wanted, so i dyed some white muslin orange. the fur is from the stash of fabric mom sent me home with in august, and i bought black felt for the triangles. the whole thing snaps together and apart (the fur from the shorts, and the bone from the fur) and he has a club to match that isnt in the picture.



then, there is emma, my little pebbles. jason helped pick out the fabric for her dress, which i left long so i can later cut off the jagged edge and hem it up as a regular dress for her. i love the pink buttons and orange thread.





the pink bloomers are from a dress andie gave emma this summer, so i didnt have to make any!



i attached her bone to a white bow headband and just stitched over the bow. she doesnt have enough hair for a pony tail so the head band will have to do. she is still wearing it too, so it must not bother her.





and, a cheesy grin from my little girl. such cute kiddos!

  1. I just died. Of a cute attack. THANKS SARAH. THANKS SO MUCH.

    Also in that first picture, where she's like "huh?" - I've seen that expression on your face like eleventy billion times. It's the "are you done with your story yet jenn?" face. :)
