Cool Homemade Oompa Loompa Halloween Costume

My 4 year old son got to choose what he wanted to be for Halloween this year. He chose an Homemade Oompa Loompa Halloween Costume! Unfortunately it’s a costume that has to be homemade.

I had to dye a white turtleneck brown and paint the stripes on. My grandma was kind enough to sew the pants together. It’s impossible to find white sweatpants also. The suspenders were just left over pieces of felt. Instead of buttons I just cut out pieces of brown felt. The tights had a couple different prototypes before the final pair. I ended up buying brown tights and making the stripes with white duct tape. Worked great!

After wearing it twice I’ll have to redo the tape but that’s simple. The shoes are just a pair of ballet slippers with some yarn pom-poms attached. I do highly recommend a setting spray before you apply the makeup. It really helped me from getting orange all over my place and car. Came off easy too. Overall I think this year was a success!
