It's Almost that time of Year Again... Halloween

I love Halloween.  Not sure why, but I love decorating the house and making the kids costumes.  I have started making the boys costumes.

The boys want to be Minecraft characters.  Nathan wants to be Enderman and Clayton wants to be Herobine.  So I've been googling costume ideas and looking on Pinterest.  I found some good ones about the diamond sword and treasure chest.

Here is the link for the diamond sword.  While I didn't print out the images.  I did follow the pattern on the sword.

Clayton wants it to be shiny.  So now I have to find something.  I'm thinking glossy glue or something.

I used this picture as a guide.

Nathan wanted a treasure chest to carry his candy in.  While that's not going to happen.  I thought I would make one anyways.  It only took a couple of hours.

They are both made with cardboard, foam and then construction paper glued/taped on.  The boys are so excited.

Now to make the people.  Then to make the girls costumes.  Faith wants to be Miley Cyrus this year, the one where she is wearing the teddy bear.
