![]() ![]() I then used my Cricut to cut an SVG file for the Starbucks logo and stuck the vinyl to the green felt circle. (all of this done with hot glue or sticky felt – you choose). I used tan felt and wrapped it around the piece for a hot sleeve, and added a round green circle of felt. Be sure to leave the sides open because that also works great for arm holes! I hot glued that piece in spots along the top to make it sort of ‘stick out’ so it looked like the lid. I then took a second piece of the same material and made a strip about 5 inches tall. The cup of coffee was non negotiable right? My oldest son was a latte or cup of coffee. For his costume I glued a big piece of this kind of super inexpensive foam into a tube. It was soooo cute, and I think the pink cake pop is so iconic for Starbucks now that it definitely ‘read’ as right. I paired with a white onesie and white tights and called it a day. I used rope like this and connected the 2 half balls together in 3 spots. One short string in the middle of the bottom – this was to go between her legs (think a life jacket strap). Then two other strings (actually 4 were for the shoulder straps. For those I used hot glue and glued a piece on the top of each side on both sides to tie on her shoulders. I then glued sprinkles like this on them (I opted for something actually edible incase she ate any!). The baby was a cake pop, and let me tell you….I wanted to actually eat her with how cute she looked!įor her costume I took 2 of these foam half circles and painted them light pink. If you know me I am a Starbucks addict….and I figured after the amount of it I had been drinking during a move and renovation I would just FULLY embrace the coffee lifestyle. The Starbucks costume ended up being such an easy and fun costume that I knew I needed to share how we made it happen! ![]() Last year I had the idea to dress our family of 6 up as ‘Starbucks’ for Halloween. – I don’t need anyone reminding me that my kids don’t want to wear this haha! Family Costume Number 1 – Starbucks for All Let it be known – we let the kids pick what they wear for trick or treating so these costumes are truly just for my work. I will be honest – we have only done a whole family halloween costume 2 times. They tend to be a lot to coordinate, HOWEVER, both times they were done last minute with minimal effort, and made me realize that family halloween costumes will be a thing for us. Easy Halloween Costumes for Groups/Families I am never serious and for me the best Halloween costumes are normally the easiest halloween costumes and the funniest halloween costumes. The best part of all of these diy Halloween costumes is that they all are VERY low cost, and can give some items in your closet a new life. I have some other posts with last-minute halloween costumes which is honestly where 99% of these were born (you get bonus points in any costume contest if you finished it that day…right?) so I will link to that post as well. ![]() ![]() To me – easy Halloween costumes typically mean you are using mostly street clothes, and they don’t require sewing and major amounts of work. That is not to say there isn’t some creativity, but most of the costumes you will see in this post are going to be SO EASY and cost you nearly nothing. I think that people think that going to the costume store is the only way to get easy Halloween costumes, and that is simply not the case. Sometimes DIY is just as easy in creating a fun costume – and I am going to show you how. October is NUTS for our family. We have 3 birthdays leading up to the holiday, so I always feel a bit like I am hanging on by a thread trying to get everything done. I am a bit of an over achiever. I love my kids to have the ‘DIY’ ish Halloween costume, but I don’t have it in me to go above and beyond, so easy costumes are my NEED! ![]()
