Frugal and Fun Halloween Costumes
Our family has always enjoyed dressing up for Trick-Or-Treating. When the boys were little I sewed them costumes every year, and now have 4 containers of costumes, that I guess I’m saving for grandchildren.
The most memorable year, was when we all dressed up like Wizard of Oz characters. My husband was The Scarecrow, I was Dorothy, my oldest was The Tin Man and my middle son (then the youngest) was The Lion. We were even given Christmas ornaments that year by my sister, we put them on the tree each year and remember that Halloween fondly.
Since my boys are older now, I won’t (sniff,sniff) be sewing them costumes, but I did want to share with you some that I found.
These are some from Family Fun website
And from Parents Magazine website

How cute! My daughter wants to be Dorothy this year and we have been researching her costume for a few weeks already. I did find the shoes she wants at Target (ruby red) and I know she wants here hair in bows. I’m thinking of making the costume or altering one I found at a store.
