Have you tried to get a halloween costume for your one year old that is a bit unique? Well good luck finding them unless you are willing to shell out tons of money for a costume they are going to wear for a couple of hours at best. I for one was tired of finding the same old costumes every year, they are really cute but you couldn’t wear one and be the only cute monkey or teddy bear out there. So I decided to stitch one my self. I found this DIY owl costume on a blog and added my own colors and changed it a bit but the obsession didn’t end there I took it a step further and stitched this halloween bag because my son was only a year old, he doesn’t know to carry any bag let alone ask for candy and fill it up. So I stitched this with the left over material with a long handle so he could wear it as a messenger bag and also added velcro at the opening to keep the candy from falling out now isn’t that thoughtful!
