Surprise! A Valentine’s Gift from Sweet

by Stacy on January 28, 2012

We’ve been spending a lot of time in the kitchen lately, and today we decided to bake up a special surprise for you.

But, … they didn’t last very long …

So instead Sweet thought, maybe there are a few kids out there who also like to bake cupcakes and play dress up and spend extra special time with their Moms — know any kids like that?

Sweet thinks maybe they might like an extra special apron of their own.

Sea Inspired DIY Costumes

by Stacy on October 21, 2009

I’m super impressed with the new addition to Family Fun‘s DIY Halloween costumes this year. These adroable beauties look like something you spent a ton of money on and they’re both easy enough for beginners that I feel confident even I could make them look great. My kids costumes are already planned this year, but I have a feeling that mermaid look will be making its way into play time in my house VERY SOON. {It’s made using cupcake liners!}

Pink Little Bunny Ears

Bunny costume
We spied this cute little bunny ensemble on The Purl Bee and just knew we had to share, while this one is a bit more involved than some of our with DIY Halloween costumes, it still requires only minimal sewing. I’m willing to sew a spell to get the results of this one.

Just check out these cute little paws and you’ll know why:

Bunny Paws

Molly, the creator, really put some love into this one and it shows. The final costume : the hat, the paws, a leotard, some tights, and a pom pom tail is perfect for a growing young girl. We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did. Be sure to check out the full instructions, here  

Molly, Thanks for sharing!

Happiness is a Butterfly

Butterfly Costume

Man, I love this photo. Are you looking for something really special, but super simple, cheap, and easy for your child to wear this Halloween? Aren’t we all. Thankfully, for those of us who have fiddled around with these costumes till the very last minute, you’ll be happy to know that Martha has us covered. Just take a look at this beautiful butterfly costume. All you need is all black clothing, some wire (a couple of coat hangars will do for me), some tape, and some crepe paper (you could also use fabric for something a little more permanent. That’s it, don’t believe me… here’s the link

Flower Power

Flower Costumes

Here’s a no-sew costume idea brought to us by lovely Martha. This one can be ready in minutes and incorporates clothing you already have on hand. All you need is some felt, fusible webbing, a little trim, a colorful dress or tunic, and some bright tights. Add the cute pollen headband for even more pizazz, as always leave it to Martha. We’ve got a few more costumes only Martha could come up with heading your way…
