We decided that Rachel would be a bumble bee for Halloween this year. In the future, she will choose her own costumes - for now, it is all up to us. I decided to make a project of it and made the costume myself. It was fun bringing it all together. Wes helped a lot as well so it was a team effort. Rachel even helped by being a good trooper through the fittings.
Here she is letting me figure out where the arm openings should go:
After that, we had to figure out the right length and how much stuffing to put in.
We added a hat, some wings and a black outfit underneath. Here is the finished product:
We think she looks pretty darn cute and ready to take on all of the fun Halloween events.
The first of many Halloween costumes to come.. How lucky she is to have a creative mom!
