Seths gran - can you post a picture? I love the Gruffalo. We recently went to the Belbrougton Scarecrow Festival where one of the villagers had made the Gruffalo (out of straw) I was like a big kid with my loud ohhhh and ahhhh's!

I am useless with posting pics but will see if my daughter will do it for me LOL This is the pattern I used http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Articles/5204128/afv--24713--14587product2024291615thumblarge_Full.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.ehow.com/how_5204128_make-hippo-costume.html&usg=__LAeT-gHEks97zRs7wAEjG2eGiNA=&h=500&w=331&sz=51&hl=en&start=1&tbnid=P0ujGIE_qHi0FM:&tbnh=130&tbnw=86&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dsimplicity%2Bbird%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den and I omitted the beak and the flappy wings. Ofcourse he is my little one but he really did look adorable. At pre school they had The Gruffalo as the story and he was sat in the front enjoying all the fuss, we all need our moment.Nothing Changes if Nothing Changes0

Hi Al l:wave:
We made a very cheap/easy costume for my son's halloween disco tonight (only made it last night!
)
Get an old white tshirt and cut it up roughly. Splatter red paint (for blood)all over front and if wanted, pretend stitches can be made using a toy truck dipped in a sponge with black paint. Safety pins hold the shirt together if necessary.
plus Basic face painting!

He won First Prize too! :j:T:DI don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderfulMarilyn Monroe0 -

For ultra cheap, you can't beat an old sheet with eyes and mouth cut out for a ghost.
You also can make your own witches costume - just wear black and make a hat out of black card, simple!
There are also lots of easy ideas for halloween costumes to make to be found on the internet.I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderfulMarilyn Monroe0
