Halloween Costumes: Ariel and Ursula

Happy Halloween! This year, I don't have a tutorial for a costume, because I made these while I was largely pregnant and extremely unmotivated to write a tutorial. The Ursula costume was super easy, but the Ariel costume required some major thinking and re-working. 

Here are my little dears in their Little Mermaid costumes: 

I attempted to put baby powder in Amy's hair, but it looks pretty shabby. At one point, I thought I'd buy red hairspray for Daisy, but that never came to fruition. The best laid plans, people. That's a fragment. 

Daisy loves her Ariel costume, especially her fin!

She also loved her personal photo shoot. 

The joint-shoot had some rough points. I haven't mastered the art of photographing a newborn and toddler quickly and effectively yet. This shows the pure emotion of both girls toward the end. They're just a couple of poor, unfortunate souls. 

I'm not sure if we'll get a chance to wear them in public this year, but luckily neither child is old enough to care yet. I also had lofty plans of creating coordinating costumes for Zane and me, but Amy's delivery and Halloween happened to close together this year. I'll aim for family costumes next year.
