Halloween costumes can be expensive , and when you have a baby or toddler it just doesn't seem right to spend a small fortune on something they will only be able to wear once. After a little searching I was able to find a post on ehow.com to make the costume yourself, while saving a lot of money.
Here's what you will need :
1) A basic yellow t-shirt or onesie [ anywhere from a couple bucks - $6 for a pack of 3 or more from walmart or k-mart]
2) Pair of black pants or shorts [ just a few dollars, if you don't already own]
3) black felt
4) double- sided tape, hot glue gun or needle and thread :)
5) Snoopy Plush toy *optional*
total spent shouldn't be more than $10-$12 [ the cheapest "costume " I found was $14.95 with $4.97 shipping, making it $19.92]
If you don't already have a Snoopy plush , I found this really cute ty beanie baby on Amazon :
priced at $5.99 w/ free shipping. Get it here : TY Beanie Baby Snoopy w/ Sound Ok, so onto the costume:
Cut the felt into zig zag shapes and adhere onto the yellow shirt or onesie using double - sided tape, a glue gun or sew them on.
It should then look something like this
Add the black pants or shorts, and have baby holding snoopy- and Viola! You have an inexpensive , easy to make Charlie Brown costume!
Here's a cute pic I find to show the overall look :
