This year for Halloween, the kiddos are going as their current favorite characters.

Miss O is the Princess Palace Pet Beauty and Mr V is Rubble from Paw Patrol (check out his Paw Patrol party HERE and HERE).  The cool felt masks are what sparked the costume ideas (along with their love for these characters) – they are handmade but not by me, I found them in an etsy shop called A Joyful Bow.

Aren’t they so cute!  Here are the details of their costumes.

For the base of the costume I made sweat pants using Peekaboo Pattern shop’s Essential Sweats pattern in a fun sparkly fleece.  O loves them, she says they are so comfy.  Her long sleeve shirt is also a Peekaboo Pattern – the Grand Slam tee – such an easy pattern to sew up.  To really turn her into Beauty I found a pink faux fur to make a vest, paws and tail.

I made the paws following THIS tutorial I found online.  They are a little hard to wear but she loves them!  The vest was made following THIS tutorial.  I love that the vest is a piece that she can use again after Halloween.

To complete the costume, she had to have a big fluffy tail!  I drafted the tail on my own and consulted with my engineer husband on the best way to make sure it stands up correctly.  I think we made it work!  O helped me figure out the size of the bow, because Beauty’s bow is really large of course!

She is a cutie!  Miss O as the Princess Palace Pet Beauty!

Mr. V’s costume starts with the essential sweats and grand slam shirt.  I added a cute little tail into the sweats.

V also got cute paws.  I used a Simplicity pattern to make the vest, yellow rip stop fabric on the outside and a plaid fleece on the inside.  I printed Rubble’s construction pup logo onto printable iron on paper and made a zipper pull for the vest vs. a collar.

We added a construction hat with a Paw Patrol logo and wa-lah!  Mr. V as Rubble from Paw Patrol.  They both should be warm and cozy for Halloween night trick or treating!

Happy Halloween from Beauty and Rubble!!
