Last Year

I made these cute gnome costumes:








This year, I may very well order a pink Samurai costume from Amazon.

Do I feel guilty that I know how to sew and am likely not making their costumes?

Not even a little bit.

  2. That's exactly right! I certainly don't feel bad! I'm learning who, what, when I spend my time sewing and what for and definitely NOT feeling guilty for it!

  3. The kids won't care at all. Sometimes just because you can, doesn't mean you have to. Make it easy for yourself!

    I agree with my mom. Those gnome costumes were AMAZING. You deserve a year off!

    Admittedly, I do enjoy the haphazard Halloween costume sewing approach of slapping something together the night before Halloween and letting ALL sewing technique go out the window. It's kind of exhilarating thinking, "I should probably rip that seam out, but...NOPE!"

    But really, the pink Samurai getup sounds awesome.

  8. Ella is wearing a princess costume from her closet and if the monkey costume that Ella wore two years in a row doesn't fit Anna...well...I think the fact that you've already bought costumes gives you a gold star!

  11. Gnome was my little boy's first word! We still have no idea where this fascination started. You have such sweet gnomes! I made a gnome costume for P's third party, he has asked to be Bat Cat (as in Charlie&Lola) this Halloween. Sadly I don't think Amazon stock Bat Cat...
