Halloween costumes

This year my youngest is going as Dr Who, the David Tennant incarnation. 

I found a jacket to use as the overcoat at Value Village and he made a sonic screwdriver after school on Halloween day. We also found him some converse type shoes to go along with it. 

It was pretty good. 

So my daughter decided that she wanted to be a weeping Angel, also from the same Tv series. 

She made all the pieces up herself. First was the wig. 

And these will be the wings. It's foam core. 

And I helped her with sewing some curtain fabric ends and cast off grey T shirts to a thrift store dress. Irrigation hose was used to make a hoop for the bottom edge. 

And then she wore it to school on the day. 

 I'm always impressed all to heck by what she makes out of bits of this and that!
