Tips For Homemade Baby Costumes
I have all the best ideas for homemade baby costumes below. First, I have a few tips that will help you pick out the best costumes to make.
Be Realistic
Look at how much time you actually have to sit down and make the costume. Crafts always take longer than it looks like they will. Don’t let yourself down by taking on a project that is going to take you too long to finish.
Felt is your friend
It’s cheap, soft, and really easy to work with. You can create almost any costume with a few pieces of felt. Plus, you can find it at every craft store or craft section of any box store. There are even costumes you can make with just some baby clothes, felt, and a hot glue gun – no sewing required.
Build on clothes you have
Not only will this save you money, but it will save you time, too! Use solid-print onesies as the base and build up from there. If you see some ideas in this list that use clothes you don’t have yet, check out thrift stores or consignment shops. Halloween doesn’t have to be expensive.
Make a family theme
If you find baby costumes you love, add family costumes to that theme. You’ll have a fantastic time making memories together.
Keep comfort and car seats in mind
Are you driving somewhere on Halloween? Or will your baby be in a baby carrier or stroller? Make sure your little one will fit comfortably in either one after they are all dressed up. Check the weather too, and if you aren’t sure what the weather will do, dress your little one in layers so they will always be comfortable.
Check out these ideas, click continue reading, and then get crafting. It’s that easy to find your favorite homemade baby costumes.

When it comes to homemade Halloween costumes, there are endless possibilities. But when you’re tasked with creating a costume for a baby, the stakes are raised even higher. After all, not only does the costume have to be cute, but it also has to be safe and comfortable. With that in mind, here are a few more creative ways to make homemade Halloween costumes for babies.
One popular option is to dress your baby as a character from their favorite book or movie. For example, if your little one loves Minions, you could dress them up as one of the lovable characters from the Despicable Me franchise. Or if you are a fan of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, you could make them a caterpillar costume using colorful fabric or felt and a onesie.
Another option is to create a costume based on an animal or insect. For instance, you could turn your baby into a bumblebee by dressing them in black and yellow stripes. Or if you’re feeling particularly creative, you could even transform them into a dragonfly or ladybug.
Finally, if you’re looking for something truly unique, and you can sew, you could always go the DIY route and make a costume from scratch. You probably know there are great patterns to purchase or are able to make your own Halloween pattern.
Whatever route you decide to go, just remember that the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy this fun Halloween holiday with your baby!
