I created this Sulley from Monsters Inc costume from some Cosmo Girl! I decorated with fabric that I got on sale. (This Sulley is about 6'5" so I got almost three yards.) I just outlined a pair of his jeans and a shirt. I suppose a pattern would have worked too. I draped some fabric over his head for a hood and used a Styrofoam heart (cut in half) for the horns.
The spines on the back are kitchen sponges that are glued on. The tail was just pinned on with safety pins.
Total Spent: $35

Since she had the natural resemblance to "Boo" from Monsters Inc. we decided to run with it. Found the purple fabric and quilted it with a liner then turned it into a tube for the body, sewed crescent shapes together to create the hood leaving a hole in the top for mop hair and googly eyes out of pipe cleaner Styrofoam balls and felt.
The sleeves of the Monsters-inc-costume were sewn out of the gray fabric and felt teeth were attached around the mouth opening. Elastic shoulder straps were added so it wouldn't fall off. Total Spent: $15 |

My son loves Monsters Inc and he wanted a Monster Inc. costume so he decided to be Mike Wazowski for Halloween. To make Mike’s body I used a large air-filled rubber ball that I got at Wal-Mart for less than two dollars. To create the eye I duct taped a Styrofoam ball cut in half to the rubber ball. I found the Styrofoam ball at a craft store and cut it with a bread knife. Then I covered ball including the Styrofoam “eye” with paper mache.
I used a lot of newspaper and glue until there was no longer any give when I pushed on the ball. I paper mached for days. After the paper mache dried I popped the ball with a steak knife and cut the hole for my sons head, arms and body with a small saw. Then I painted it with craft paint and dyed a pair of long johns green to match.
The costume was time consuming but a lot of fun to make and it was a big hit.
Total Spent: $60
