Homemade Mermaid Costume

Easy Homemade Mermaid Costume | Mama Papa Bubba

While Miss G may have decided that she wanted to dress-up like a mermaid months ago, in true Jen fashion, I started the costume last night – the night before Halloween {like I did last year, and the year before that}.  Honestly – I wanted to start it weeks ago, but I just didn’t have any clue how I was going to pull it off.  I’d scoured the internet for clever ideas, but the combination of Miss G needing to be able to walk down flights upon flights of stairs while trick-or-treating and my not having a sewing machine really didn’t turn up any viable options.

Homemade No Sew Supergirl Costume

Homemade No sew Supergirl Costume | Mama Papa Bubba

Last year, Gracen knew exactly what she wanted to be for Halloween – a brown fox.  She decided weeks in advance and never once wavered.  This year she wasn’t quite as sure.  In the beginning, she was fairly certain that she wanted to be a giraffe or a kangaroo, but eventually the ideas of a lion, hippo, and tiger got thrown into the mix too.  I was a little bit worried about how I’d pull off one of those ideas sans sewing machine, so I was pretty relieved when she mentioned being a superhero.  That I could do.  I showed her a photo of PBK’s gorgeous amazing girl costume, and she was immediately sold (the tutu may have done it ☺).  With that, I collected a few craft supplies (some felt, sparkly craft foam, ribbon, self-adhesive velcro, and elastic) and a few awesome and inexpensive pieces from our local H&M {a headband, a teeny purse, shoe wings, and a half price leotard with a tutu attached) and we were good to go.  Thinking back to last year’s night before costume, I must enjoy working under pressure, because armed with my glue gun and a pair of scissors, I began working on Miss G’s Supergirl costume last night at 11 p.m.   The good news is that because the project involved absolutely no sewing, I was done in 2 hours flat.  Yay for that!
