Yesterday my hubby and I threw a very successful Halloween party with some close friends. \u00a0(Read all about it here!<\/a>) \u00a0One of the best parts about Halloween parties? \u00a0Dressing up of course. \u00a0(Treats are right up there as well.) \u00a0A little fact about me: \u00a0I don’t like to buy costumes. \u00a0Mainly because they are so expensive for something you will only wear once. \u00a0They also get more provocative as the years go by. \u00a0Plus, getting creative is fun! \u00a0Last year my bestie and I made queen of heart\/diamond costumes. \u00a0Check it out here<\/a>!<\/p>\n

This year I had a list of costumes I a) would like to dress up as, and b) thought I could easily put together myself. \u00a0My list was made up of Holly Golightly, ballerina, baker, and Morton Salt girl. \u00a0I ended up choosing to dress up as a baker. \u00a0(And now I have options already lined up for next year!) \u00a0This costume is\u00a0so easy,\u00a0<\/em>and I bet most ladies have the pieces that make up this costume already at home.<\/p>\n

Yep, my hubby dressed up as a chef. :-) \u00a0So- to throw together this costume, I raided my closet and kitchen to find items that would pull it together. \u00a0Everything I wore I had at home, except for the apron. \u00a0Now, I did have an apron at home, but when I saw this one at Bed Bath & Beyond I couldn’t help but buy it! \u00a0It’s so adorable, and the cupcake pattern helped me feel more like a baker. \u00a0I wore a little red dress underneath to match the apron. \u00a0My accessories included my girliest oven mitt, a wooden spoon, and a cupcake liner headband I made myself.<\/p>\n

Here is my costume breakdown:<\/p>\n

The cupcake liner headband was really easy. \u00a0I had cute pink and red Martha Stewart cupcake liners left from Valentine’s day, so I poked two holes in the bottom of a pink one, and looped delicate black ribbon through the holes. \u00a0I then pulled most of my hair up so I could tie the ribbon around my head, situating the cupcake liner off to the side. \u00a0I then put my hair down, making the black ribbon barely visible.<\/p>\n

\"Costume<\/a>See? \u00a0Easy.<\/em><\/p>\n

And there you have it! \u00a0A really easy homemade Halloween costume. \u00a0What did you dress up as?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
