Marionette Puppets Couples Costume

My boyfriend and I were thinking of a unique costume for this year. I was on Pinterest when I noticed a girl with puppet make-up on. That's when it hit me, why don't we be full-blown puppets?! We both loved the idea and headed to Home Depot to get some supplies for the costume. We got wire, wood, and string and started working on the structure. We assembled the part which would hold us up and had the string connected to both the wood and our arms. On Halloween Day, we spent hours on making sure every detail was perfect. Our makeup had to be flawless and so did our body paint for our puppet-joint arms. We attached the wire to our belts and secured it with duct tape. It was so much fun walking around our neighborhood and having people smiling and pointing us out to others. I loved this costume and I'm so happy we were able to put it together, it came out better than I imagined it to!
