Tina,
That is so cute. I'm gonna send a copy to my daughter!!. I think I'd do something a little different with the feet/claws so the child wouldn't trip when trick-or-treating, but what a beautiful costume idea.

I always LOVE Martha Stewart's Halloween edition.
Debbie, my kids went as Daisy and Donald Duck one year and my mom just made feet that attached to their regular shoes. They were no bigger than the shoes so there wasn't a tripping problem.

I've seen that on her show....totally cute! Maybe just take canvas tennis shoes and paint them yellow and/or draw on them with clothe markers like little chicken feet.
Wish I could get my youngest to dress up like this...he wants to be something from star wars or transformers or something.

When my son was a dragon , I sewed the "feet" to the front edge of both legs and they rested on top of his feet. Two rubber bands to keep them from moving and he was good to go!
with a happy heart |

That is SO cute! I wish my little guy (the 3-yr-old) would want to be something other than a Holstein cow!!! He's been one every Halloween since he was born - granted, that's only two of them, but today when I mentioned something different this year - a chick, maybe? - the suggestion was met with, "I am ALWAYS a cow, and sometimes I am a cat or a bird, and sometimes I am a boy, even," and then he ran outside to finish digging a pretend irrigation ditch for his pretend "crop" - he's growing silage, he says...
XOXO, Libbie

| Cutest ever! You girls with little ones have all the fun at Halloween! My one and only little chick has flown the coop, so I am left here with a husband who eats all the mini Snickers that the neighborhood children don't get. |
