halloween shirt

remember how I'm cheap...remember how I talk about it alot? okay. well I'm cheap. and I won't buy a holiday shirt cause I won't waste money on it for them to outgrow it in a year? remember how I have already talked about this? oh. well if not click HERE.


and now it's time for the halloween version.....


cut this out of felt...hot glued a ribbon across

and made a ribbon bow and hot glued a spider onto it.

I just pin it on the shirt

those yellow polka dots are pins.

and I baste it on. two snips and it comes right off.


the shirt two years ago.
the shirt now:

  6. what a great idea! thanks for the hint-just bought a new white shirt to make my daughter a Halloween shirt but then decided I wanted to save the new one to wear everyday-now I can do it!

  7. These are great! Even though I have a degree in fashion design, I'm kinda cheap too, when it comes to Halloween...why spend $80 on something they'll only wear once, maybe twice?
