The past couple of years n has been able to wear some hand-me-down Star Wars costumes. Since he has outgrown them, we needed to come up with a new costume idea. He agreed to be a referee.
I bought a cheap white polo and painted the stripes with black fabric paint from Michaels and painter’s tape. I only painted stripes on the front because I was too lazy–ha! We bought the black baseball cap from Michaels (the last one in the store!) and he already had the pants.
k went to a Halloween dance a couple of weeks ago and her friends all dressed up as different Peanuts characters. She made her own Charlie Brown t-shirt with the same bottle of black fabric paint. Again, I bought the yellow t-shirt from Michaels. (What would I do without Michaels and their 40%-50% coupons?)
This year k wanted to hand out candy instead of going trick or treating. Too bad we only had five groups of kids come by!
