Most Unique Halloween Costumes



This little peacock costume is so adorable! It's the first costume I've ever attempted to make and I was very proud of how cute she looked. Not only was the costume adorable and got so many compliments, but she also enjoyed wearing it and could move and play in it, which was most important!

Costume Instructions

Prep Time: Appoximately 4-5 hours.

Costume Materials
Materials included: tutu, leotard, extra tulle, glitter accents (peacock colors, purple, blue, silver), sparkly shoes, sparkle make-up, glitter spray, black tights, peacock feathers, extra feathers-some purchased lose and some in feather boas, sewing machine and hot glue gun for assembly.

Costume Instructions
I bought a leotard and attached the feathers onto the back using my sewing machine and some hot glue for re-enforcement (a toddler never stops running) and I knew it needed to be strong. I wanted to add some beautiful accents in peacock colors around the collar and arms of the leotard, most were sewed, however hot glue was used as needed. I purchased a purple tutu to match the leotard but added black tulle to it with the sewing machine. I added the same sparkle accent around the skirt to match the tutu, this was hot glued as sewing didn't work. We used black tights with silver glitter sprayed onto them and silver glitter shoes. Make-up included sparkly purple, blue, and silver around the eyes. A little feather coming out of her hair topped off the costume.
