Cupcake Costume

I am a Cupcake Fanatic and I am constantly picking up anything that has cupcakes on it. So it was only natural for me to be a Cupcake costume for Halloween! I even had sprinkles!

I used a plastic tub container, which I cut out the bottom. Wrapped some poster board, which I pleated and painted around that. Glued poly fill on top for icing and pom poms for sprinkles! I tied wide ribbon to my cupcake to make straps. I even whipped up a cupcake for my headpiece with a strawberry on top!

I added several pins with catchy phrases like "Cupcake Whisperer" and "Muffins are just ugly cupcakes". On the backside was a sign that said "Powered By Cupcakes!" And the best was my fake laminated sparkly cupcake purse!

I really had fun in this costume; it made all of my patients smile and also my co-workers!

Everyone loves Cupcakes!

I love this!!! I gotta make this for a bake sale that the doctor's office that I work for has to raise money for the Relay for Life fundraiser. I am the type of person who likes to make people laugh and have a good time when they see a person in costume. I already dress up in a hotdog costume that I bought, but this one would be homemade.....Love the idea....

 Response to questions about costume

I made the bottom of the cupcake out of a large plastic tub with handles that I found. I cut the bottom out and then was able to tie my shoulder straps to the handles. I made the paper part out of posterboard which I pleated and painted. Thank you for all the nice comments. I still have the costume and I am considering selling it but I haven't decided just yet;)

I love it, absolutely adorable but how expensive? My 3 friends and I all wanna be this so we have a budget. Stunning. So creative and better than all the other cupcake costumes I've seen.

 need help making cupcake liner
by: Anonymous

I love your costume and decided to try it myself. I'm having problems with making the poster board cupcake liner narrower at the bottom so it doesn't look like a square. Did you have more than one seam? Did you cut it? Any ideas? Thanks for your help!!

I used a plastic basket with handles. It wasn't a laundry basket..some type of utility tote with handles. The shape of the tote was larger at the top than the bottom. So when I wrapped the posterboard around the basket/tote. It just naturally followed the shape of the basket. And yes I used more than one piece and just cut it where needed. I hope this helps. Good Luck, Jen
