It's HALLOWEEEEEEEEENNN!!!!

I TOTALLY had to share this with you because I was simply too freakin' excited about it!
A few months ago (while I was still on mat leave and pinning away like crazy on ...you guessed it...Pinterest!) I came across this amazing peacock costume and totally fell in love!

Cutest peacock ever!!!!

I decided that it totally had to be my lil' pumpkin 1st real Halloween costume (because last year, she was about 6 months & I had put together this very last minute "mermaid" costume...so it doesn't really count as her 1st REAL costume! Haha!)

So last weekend, I bought all the supplies I needed (basically tulle, felt, elastic...that's about it!), created my little pattern for the peacock feather pieces and started sewing away! Here's a sneak peek of the work in progress...

Lots of feathers!

A cute little mask...will she keep it on? That's another story! ;)

Try on her tutu...it's coming along great!

I ended up with enough fabric to also do an adult version for myself! Call me Mama Peacock! ;)
Stay tuned for more pictures...if I'm able to snap some of the little one in her outfit! :)

Happy Halloween!!!!! :)
