Nail Polish Costume

My daughter (just 1 year old) was so into her nail polish that we thought we'd make her be a bottle of nail polish. She loved it and kept in one all night long. She wanted to wear ti for months afterwards!

She wore a basket upside down with a whole cut out of the bottom - which we covered with vinyl fabric with hot gule and used mailbox letters to put lettering on the front and back. I did attach ribbon to the sides so the basket stayed up and fit like a halter top. We then purchased a child's witch's hat and cut the brim off. Daddy even wore a shirt that said Polish Remover!! And mom put some sand paper on a shirt for a finger nail file!

Prep Time: 30 minutes or less!

  2. Cut a hole out of the bottom of the basket.
  3. Hot glue ribbon straps from the cut hole to make a loop - or it can be tied like a halter top around the neck.
