Are you ready for the easiest DIY Halloween costume ever?
And dare I say, one of the cutest?
Here it is!
Charlie Brown!
This was Luke's costume when he was 1. I can't even remember him being this small. Crazy. But wasn't he a doll? Let me tell you, if you have a smallish boy, you should really consider Charlie Brown. It's just so nostalgic and cute. Tons of compliments will flow your way, believe me. And it's very simple.
Step one: find a yellow T-shirt. I got mine at a thrift store.
Step two: Use a Sharpie to draw a big zig-zag along the bottom of the shirt. Or if you want to be a little extra crafty, cut a zigzag out of felt and sew it on. I didn't know how to sew back then, so I took the easy route.
Step three: Use an eyebrow pencil to draw a curlicue on his forehead.
Step four: Pair this with dark pants, a football and whatever under-the-T layers you need to keep your kid warm.
Done!
Super fast, super cheap, super cute and memorable.
I am a huge Peanuts fan, so I could not resist this. I LOVE it, Krista! So clever and simple, and I love the curlicue on the forehead. Awesome costume.
