Well, halloweekend is {almost} over, and what an interesting one it was. I told y’all I’d post my costume(s) afterwards so here we go. Drum roll pleaseeeeee….
I was a banana!
Just kidding. I wasn’t a banana, but I kind of wish I was… How good does that banana costume look paired with my J.Crew vest?! Soooo cute.
I was actually a Royals player! Of course, I knew I’d be getting “what are you, 2nd place?” and “oh sorry about your loss” and maybe a few “go giants!” so I was prepared with my sign that very boldly stated “1st is the worst, 2nd is the best.” In case you’re wondering, yes, I am 12 because I still use that saying.
Don’t worry, the banana costume didn’t go to waste. This is Mr. Friendly Banana aka Mark.
For night two I took my roomie/bff/Mare to my Theta mixer (who needs boys anyways?!) and we went as CatDog (throwwwwback). If you don’t know what CatDog is you were either deprived as a child or you’re under the age of 15 currently.
It was such a fun night, and we got tons of compliments on our costumes! Want to make your own CatDog costume? Follow the directions below!
Supplies
- 2 Large yellow tee shirts
- Brown felt
- 2 Headbands that match hair color
- White foamboard
- Red & Purple paint
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Hot Glue Gun
- Exacto knife
- Eyeliner
- Converse
- Cut out “spots” from the brown felt. I did all the same size, but Mary did various sizes. Either way works
- Hot glue the spots onto the yellow tee shirts
- Cut out either pointy cat ears or floppy dog ears from the brown felt and glue them onto the headbands
- Cut out the foamboard into the arrows, leaving one side jagged. Paint the cat sign in red, and the dog sign in blue
- Once dried, poke holes in the foarmboard and string the ribbon through so it hangs around your neck. Make sure to use a soft ribbon, Mary and I used cheap ribbon and it was itching our necks all night!
- Use eyeliner to paint whiskers/spots and noses on your face!
- Slip on some shorts, tie up your Converse and you’re all ready to go!
