A Pile of Leaves Costume


Looking for a quick and easy last minute costume for Halloween? I made this Pile of Leaves costume for Evangeline in only a few hours! This costume is super cute and paired with a tiny child's rake, you can have a unique, handmade costume ready for Halloween night!


I bought a bunch of faux Maple and Oak leaves from AC Moore during a sale promotion. I used about 6 bags of leaves for her size 2T outfit. The outfit was a pair of red fleece pants and a long sleeve red t-shirt. These are simple basics that you may already have tucked away in dresser drawers!


Using my trusty hot glue gun, I started at the bottom of the garments. Working my way up, I glued leaves in a random pattern covering both the front and back. The headband was another item that I already had in my home! Using hot glue again, I covered the top of the brown headband with leaves. 


Now Eva is smiling and ready for a fun night of trick-or-treating!

    That is so cute and the headband could do double duty as a Fall accessory.

    The illustrator must utilize their inventiveness and information on the artistic expression to create characters and universes that address the issues of the undertaking, rather than concentrating basically on making as exact pictures as could be expected under the circumstances. anime action figure

    For instance whether the character is energized or is a genuine individual, the two of them need to convincingly depict feelings, express non-verbal communication and give a compelling discourse and sensible articulations.manga nelo
