Halloween 2017! Have I already mentioned Halloween is my favorite??? Cause, it is...
I wanted to get the whole family dressed up as a group this year. It was a challenge year since my husband had to have a beard for deer hunting. I started searching for characters who have beards and came up with Thor! Thor is my favorite/dreamiest superhero and the movie will be coming out so I ran with it!
(Hulk: Ragnarok Cast)
Hulk:
I was able to take the easy route for my older son and picked up a Hulk costume. I have a thing against masks, so I created little spartan hat for him to wear instead. It didn't turn out how i wanted, but it got the job done!
(Just out shopping with Hulk. NBD!)
Loki:
My little guy was a little harder. I didn't see a Loki costume that was 24 months, so I had to improvise. I picked up black pants and a onesie, easy. I made a detachable cape and felt shoulder pads. But, I needed a helmet in order to get the full effect. I turned to crochet. I made little horns and sewed a black hat to attach them to. He did super well leaving it alone. I was so impressed and happy!
(Cutest Loki face ever!)
Thor:
For my heartthrob, I picked up a black muscle shirt and sweat pants to go under the handmade parts of his costume. Using leftover Anakin jedi leather, I made the chest plate. Some fleece flaps and sash for different textures. And topped it off with a bright red cape! I didn't have enough time to get the blue shoulder cap done...
(Loki thinks Momma is funny!)
For myself, I used black leggings and a black tank top under my outfit. That way if something fell apart I wouldn't be indecent! I used some sporty/stretchy fabric to make my top with some gray piping between the seams. I made little arm gauntlets and finished it off with a beautiful blue cape!
(Capes are so bitchin'!)
I had good intentions to have our fur baby be Grand Master and create a little robe for her to wear, but I ran out of time! I may have to revive these when my Loki fits into the Hulk costume...
