6 amazing homemade Halloween costumes for kids

Handmade Halloween costumes for babies are my weakness. Some girls like diamonds or Coach bags. Whatever.

From etsy, this incredible Max suit for lovers of Where the Wild Things Are, is made by katesy.

This DIY owl knocks my socks off. I love the fabrics in the feathers. Instructions on Alphamom.

You know I have a thing for chick superheroes. Apparently so does smallforbig. Her little super girl could not be more charming, right?

Oh wait, there’s more super kid cuteness to be had. Styling on this photo courtesy of etsy cape-seller craftymamaky. Snapsuit atop tights layered with sock fragments, paired with shiny waistband? Kapow!

I put Scarlett in this same costume back in 2007, but did not think to add a boombox. Homemade by Jill has taken it to a new level with her felt accessory, and I love it.

Swoon! This costume is enough to make me want to have another baby. A baby that will drive me to find a sweater at a thrift store that looks like a sock monkey and … just, wow. Grosgrain Fabulous is the talent behind this beautiful baby and wonderful sock monkey costume.

So which of these fabulous handmade costumes is your favorite?
