10 DIY Halloween Costumes for My Toddler

By Milastolemyheart
In a few more days, Mila will finally attend her first costume party: The Mommy Bloggers Philippines Halloween Party. You know how much I love dressing her up right? I would not pass on this chance to put together the cutest outfit for my little doll. Even if Halloween is not a real holiday in the Philippines, a lot of parents now are really making an effort to pick the best costume for their little one. I will be one of them.
I had a blast when I made Mila's Skeleton outfit last year. Since then, I decided to DIY all of Mila's Halloween costumes. Nothing wrong with the store bought ones. I just love how it challenges my creativity. May it be simple or extravagant, a win or a fail, I know I'd feel better knowing that she'll be unique. Oh, I am not a designer nor an artist. I still need inspirations and how-to's. Pinterest had been my friend as of late.
Out of a gazillion pin-worthy costumes, I listed the ones I think I can make and will be cute for Mila. Some of them has step-by-step instructions, thanks to the wonderful creative mommas sharing their talents (just follow the link). Maybe you can find inspiration for your little one too.

We have at least 2 parties to attend this year. Here's a preview of one of the costumes I'm making for Mila. Can you guess what it'll be?

Costume fitting. What will Mila be? Can you Guess?


I haven't decided on the second or third. I may pick from the above list or maybe an inspiration will come and I'll make a my own DIY Halloween costume. What do you think?
