Homemade Halloween: A Little Farm Girl

Another easy Halloween costume idea is a little farm girl costume. Again, it uses items that you probably already have on hand. The best part - it will cost next to nothing!

In the midst of a very busy year in our life, Halloween was upon us before I knew it. I had to come up with a costume, quick. After looking at DD's clothing, an idea quickly formed. 

She had a well worn pair of blue jean overalls that she wore around the house. We put a white turtle neck long sleeve shirt underneath them. She didn't have any boots so we pulled out the snow boots she had, to wear with the overalls. For her hair, I braided it into 2 braids, then we put on a Ford tractor baseball cap her daddy had that was a little worn and dirty. I then took a brown eye liner pencil to dots freckles across her nose and cheeks. To collect her candy in, we took a small galvanized bucket and lined it with a red handkerchief. That little extra touch just added to the whole thing.

Once her outfit was all set, she was ready to go trick-or-treating. It was a simple idea, but was very simple to throw together too. Not to mention the best part - it didn't cost us anything! 

Homemade Halloween is simply a good thing!
