DIY: Costumes

I have been working diligently on our Halloween Costumes for this year.

I can't believe it is only a week away!

It's actually nice because we have a small area around here where several of us with kiddos can meet and take them around. Although we live in a rather large condo building, we don't go door to door. Instead we venture out to designated locations around our area. They get plenty of candy that way. Plus, we get a fun time of fellowship. We typically gather for dinner after the candy excursion.

And yes, us adults get in on the act too -- of course!

Every year our family dresses up in a theme.
Since there is only 3 of us, it's easy to come up with an idea.

This year.... it's 80's pop icons!

So, here are some sneak peaks of what I have been putting together for us.
I will share the full pics after the fun-filled evening!

And as a confession disclaimer.... I DO NOT SEW!
So, all of my DIY costume ideas have been fabricated with scissors, hot glue and adhesive.
Go figure!

Can you guess who I am gonna be?

Can you guess who my kiddo is gonna be?

I'll save my hubby for the final reveal. His is the simplest costume.
He is always a trooper at joining in on the fun!

How 'bout you?
