cookie costume

halloween costume for N
completely inspired by and based on this post

Charming, fun and easy, even for someone with pretty rudimentary sewing skills. The chocolate chip cap was my own idea. I made it with the leftover dark brown felt and reused some dark brown ribbon from a birthday gift that someone gave me. Getting the shape and size right were the most challenging aspects of this part of the project. Toddlers have surprisingly large heads.

I even had high hopes of using the 'cookies' as pillows for N's little chairs, but she takes them off whenever I try to put them on. She's not into the idea of multi-function items yet. Ah well. I still think it's a great idea!
