Pikachu Costume

This is my son Cash dressed as Pikachu from Pokemon. Both of my kids love Pokemon so I decided to use it as this years costume theme. I bought the body suit from party city and cut off the tail. I hand sewed a new one as I would a pillow and colored the brown parts with a brown marker. I was going to make a hood for the head part but it wasn't going to workout so I had to improvise. (I decided to do this the night before Halloween..) I took one of my headbands and hot glued foam around it to make it fatter and more stable. I hand sewed and stuffed the ears and then colored the brown part with a marker. Then wrapped the headband with the yellow fabric and attached the ears. I tried to dye his gloves with dye but it didn't turn out so I used MUSTARD. It worked! I put yellow socks over his shoes and painted his face and hair.
