Family Circus Costume

After taking the kids to a local circus and hearing our daughter, Caileigh, rave about the show for months, we decided to feature her as the ring master of this traveling-trick-or-treating circus, along with her little brother, Kyle, as the caged circus lion.
Most of their costumes were taken straight from their closets, but we added some materials to provide the details (feather boa became a lion's mane, gold tassels became epaulettes). The cage was made from scrap plywood and a few dollars worth of PVC pipe froma local hardware store- the only time consuming task was painting...but it was well worth it!
