From the awesome mind of Ms. Robin Walker, mother of The Great Gray Owl, this is how you do Halloween in a chic, cool way:
“I went to the fabric store bought 6 colors of felt, interfacing (creates structure for the wings), black tights (century 21 $2.00), velcro, black dye, one really rad feather, and fabric glue. I had a white onesie (Carters) on hand and I ordered the hat from Hanna Annerson. I cut 5 pannels of the white for the feathers on the onesie and glued. I cut the black felt into the goggles and glue the velcro, done. Then I dyed the white pilots hat black and cut lil ears from the felt and glued to the hat, done. Then the wings gave me total trouble. I cut each color felt into a different size “feather” then glue together and backed with the interfacing, finally I glued the velcro onto the back of the wings to attached it to the baby.. He was great and totally didn’t give me any trouble when getting ready!!! Such a man and a good lil owl! The Mummy mini cupcakes are just lil brownies with candy eyes (Target) put on with the white frosting piped over with a flat pastry tip!”
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
