Homemade Gravitational Pull Pregnancy Costume
I'm due Nov. 6th and definitely feel like I have my own gravitational pull! We've been in and out of the hospital so I waited till the last minute (really, the night before Halloween I went and bought the stuff) to make this Homemade Gravitational Pull Pregnancy Costume since I wasn't sure if I'd be pregnant for Halloween or not.
So I painted a sun on a piece of black fabric (I just tied the fabric around my belly but I really wish I would have used a black sweatshirt or long sleeve T-shirt), painted Styrofoam balls to look like random planets and secured them with craft wire to a belt around my hips. I used varying lengths of wire so I could make the planets 'orbit at different heights. Voila, solar system in the time it takes a bit of paint to dry.
I used puffy paints because that's what I found
on sale and I'm sure it would have been easier using an actual paint brush with fabric/craft paint if you have the extra time. Also, in retrospect, it would have been nice to take an extra day to put Glow-in-the-Dark paint on it too, but it had the effect I was going for and all of my nerdier friends loved it!
