We’re not huge on Halloween at our house. I’m not one for the spooky and scary stuff, but I love the idea of dressing up and make a costume for the little man is so fun. Last year was our first Halloween and JDub went as a scuba diver. While I had enough energy to make his costume, for some reason I didn’t make a tutorial for it!
This year he is running and climbing on everything so I needed to have a costume that was easy for him to move in and wouldn’t get snagged on his current Everest. It had to be something fun and cute at the same time. So this year he is an adorable Vintage Cirus Strongman.
I’m going to help you make this awesome costume for your little one in just a few easy steps! If this is the costume for you this year, we have almost a 100 others for you to pick from!
Red bodysuit in appropriate size
Baby Spouts & Co. Striped Shorts
Black Spray Paint
Dowel Rod
Fake Mustaches that stick on OR try this Mustache Pacifier
Cut the sleeves off of your body suit and a deep neck line.
Spray paint your dowel rod and allow to dry completely. We blew up our balloons and attached them to the end of the dowel with black washi tape, electrial tape will work great too.
