DIY Baby Costume Ideas

We love playing dress up with our babes, so naturally Halloween is one of our favorite holidays. And we are huge fans of the easy peasy DIY costume. Sure, you could spend loads of money on something store bought or on fabric to sew up an epic Harry Potter costume. But why not use your babe's current wardrobe as a jumping off point and hand-make something to complete the look? To inspire you, we put together some DIY costume ideas using our wardrobe as the inspiration.
