DS wants to be R2D2. There is not a costume to be found in his size anywhere on the internet and I do not sew or craft. Needless to say, I am in a Pinterest panic.
For the body, maybe cut down a white sheet, cut armholes in it, attach velcro up the back--you can get no-sew velcro strips at most craft sections--and cut out the shapes out of construction paper?
The helmet can be a silver bowl or a styrofoam semicircle. I know Michaels and Joann often sell them. The hardest part is basically cutting out all the rectangles and then gluing them on.

DD is going to be Hermione Granger. She's going to be great at it, as she has the hair naturally, and she's also naturally pretty bossy. She wears black skirts, tights, white shirts and black sweaters as part of her school uniform. I bought a tie I'm modifying into Gryffindor colors, I'm knitting her a scarf, and made her a wand. Â Found a Gryffindor robe at a thrift store, and walla, done and done.
wand, baby:
DS is going to be a pirate. He loves pirates, so it's all good. Got him the fully awesome pirate costume from Costco. Â His birthday party is going to be the day after Halloween, and he wanted a pirate theme and to wear his pirate costume. Who am I to tell him no?
My dd is going to be Hermione too! Your costume sounds awesome.. I just bought hers. She will wear it at least 4 times before Halloween so I thought good ROI. She's obsessed with HP
DD has a ton of dress up outfits, so she will be wearing different ones to various events. Sao far she has been Doc McStuffins and Ariel as a bride. Tomorrow she will wear her Anna coronation dress and Sunday she'll wear her regular Anna dress. For future events she'll be Merida, Ariel (as a regular mermaid)and Minnie Mouse.
The boys are going to be astronauts. I'm going as outer space because it means fun make. . The girl is either going to be an alien, astronaut or Merida from Brave. I think she really wants to be Merida, but she doesn't want to feel left out if the boys and I are themed.
Sorry, just a lurker but I love showing off my kid.
She was the witch from the book "Room on the Broom". Her costume wasn't exact but she didn't care. Her sister was a cat-witch. lol She wouldn't keep the cat ears and tail on and ended up stealing her cousin's witches hat so we went with it.
