Barista costume-creator Irene says, “I initially planned to stencil the logo over the apron but after several attempts I realized that having it printed out for me at a local computer shop was much easier and less messy! mama sewed the cap while I also made a candy bucket out of an old lamp shade and made it look like a Starbucks cup with a sleeve.” Alonzo also wore the same costume a second year. basic apron costume for the win!

Thien-Kim developed her daughter Sophia’s fairy dress by combining two absolutely different articles of clothing a la pretty In Pink. She writes, “I like upcycling because half the sewing is done for you. If you cut up the clothing right, you don’t have to hem and a lot of inside seams are already finished.”

Elizabeth made this charming penguin costume already for her 5-month old son. looks cozy! I’m absolutely impressed. She put instructions on her blog, if you’re interested.
