After seeing this Sam-I-Am costume on Dana's blog I knew I had to make one for my little one's first Pre-school Halloween party. After two failed attempts, one was too small and I tried spray painting white fur the second time - a total failure, I was lucky enough to find yellow fur. I think it turned out great. Third times a charm!!

My little one wanted to be Minnie Mouse this morning. Since we didn't have any Halloween parties/activities to attend I convinced her to skip the costume and instead wear her Minnie skirt, ears, and a bit of make-up.

My little one was desperate to have her very own Jessie costume. She loves the Toy Story movie trilogy and insisted on making a trip to the Disney store once a week to visit the costumes. I finally got around to finishing this up for her. Although it's full of mistakes and imperfections (don't look to closely at the collar), she absolutely loves it and that's all that really matters!

 So I've been really busy and haven't had much time for sewing. I don't have any sewing projects to show everyone, but here's a little something my husband made for my son for Halloween. In my family we start our Halloween activity the first weekend in October. This year we started with Mickey's Trick or Treat Party held at Disneyland. The kids had a blast and my little guy actually made it through the whole night wearing this get up...

The costume is made from sheet metal, nuts, and bolts all from Home Depot.
