Pillsbury Doughboy Halloween Costume
I found this Pillsbury Doughboy Halloween costume idea from this site and I had to do it! The hat was so easy! The bottom is construction paper that I stapled to the correct size and then cut in half. I lined the inside with felt to make it soft and cover the staples.
He hated the feel of the paper so I covered it with cotton fabric and glued it. The top is white tissue paper that I glued to the inside of the hat and fluffed to the shape I wanted. I used double sided tape to stick the paper together so it held it's shape. I cut the circle from blue felt and used white scrapbooking letter stickers for the word Pillsbury.
He wore a white long sleeved onesie and white tights. A handkerchief made from a scrap of cotton fabric and a wooden spoon and he was good to go!
I spent $6 and it took 20 minutes. He was a big hit, everyone loved it and people were taking pictures of him to show their friends! Thanks for the great idea!
