I never liked “happily ever afters” from a very young age. I remember growing up thinking to myself after every Disney movie,” This could’ve went wrong very easily” So one Halloween I decided to show people what that “wrong” alternative could have been. My first successful costume showing this was Little Miss Muffet wrapped in … Read more

Being that Halloween is my favorite day of the year, I started this project about 9 months in advance. The little mermaid was my life when I was a kid, and something I have always aspired to be. Using an old bra and some fabric I purchased, I created a mermaid look. Each seashell and … Read more
I’ve always liked every little mermaid as a little girl. The thought of Ursula crossed my mind a few times but I didn’t like the costumes that you could purchase and the idea of constructing one of my own seemed too daunting. However, this year I got the guts to go for it. First, I … Read more
For the past few years, I’ve wanted to be Ursula for Halloween. I looked online, but to my dismay, every “plus size” Ursula costume I found was barely that, running a size 14-16, which is about a 1x.

For my Ursula costume, first I made the tentacles. I bought material purple and black and some cotton. I cut them into triangles and sewed the sides, then added the cotton along with copper wire to make sure I could curl them to my liking. I left some space for a belt at the top … Read more

My nine year old daughter wanted to be a mermaid being carried by a pirate this year. She always loves the optical illusion costumes. She keeps her costume a secret until the day of Halloween and all of her classmates gather around to see what we came up with that year. We made the pirate … Read more
I’ve wanted to be a scary mermaid for years and finally made it happen. I made the scales out of many different shimmery fabrics hot glued to a long body-con skirt I gathered and sewed at the knees to give it the right shape, and the fin out of tulle and seaweed. I hot glued … Read more
My son’s name is Sebastian, so for his first Halloween, I decided he should be none other, than himself! Lol. I made his costume out of a snow suit, it was 2 size two big so I had to cut it up quite a bit. I even had enough fabric for little claw mittens. And … Read more
OKAY, so first off, I wanted to be little mermaid and my boyfriend Prince Eric, but with a horrifying twist! Price Eric has turned into a zombie and took a chunk out of little sweet Ariel’s neck. Our costume was a HIT at my party and I received so many compliments on each of our … Read more
