"Ava will never wear a store bought costume"
What was I thinking? You should never say things like that! I did make her costume this year. I had great intentions of starting early and finishing early but the Fall Festival was Friday and I was finishing her costume an hour before we had to leave. Now anyone who knows me, knows that nothing gets done on time but that was really really pushing it. It turned out great and only cost about 20 bucks! I made a white tutu and hand sewed black faux fur spots and a tail. I bought a $3.00 onesie at target and machine sewed more spots on the top half of that. I made a set of puppy ears and attatched them to a black goodies headband. I added a little red bow to one of the ears of course. It had to be known she was a girl puppy....if the tutu didnt give it away! My favorite part of the whole costume is her collar. It is made out of felt and glitter paint. It made the outfit so complete. Maybe Ill start earlier next year!
