| Easier Than You Think! |
| Costumes |
| Even if you cannot sew, I have used a body suit or plain pajamas or a sweat shirt and pants (In the right climate) and attached a simple set of ears made of felt to a hat or hood, tails made of felt, material or just (safe) fluff ! Then just use kid safe make-up and draw on a face if needed. In ANY case ALWAYS be sure the costume is kid safe, fire retardant, climate correct and age appropriate. |
| Kid Cat made with sweats, fabric paint and felt. |
| Pumpin Boy made with a SIMPLE sewing pattern from Wal-Mart. This costume is not much more than a bag really! |
 |
| Fun Foam can be bent glued and cut into all sorts of shapes! |

| Who said costumes need to be more than well accessorized clothes? Well Lara Croft here was happy! |
| BLUE here was a home made costume, sort of fashioned after feetie pajamas! I used Polar Fleece. It handles like felt but is washable and needs no hemming! |
| Optimus here won second prize at the OTFCC in Chicago in 2003! |

| And if you don't mind sneezing while you sew......there's always man made fur! |

 |
| Or.... You find an old dress, add a bit of nip and tuck, a detail or two made with fabric paint and you can have a costume! |
