This homemade costume for families entered our 2015 Halloween Costume Contest.
A word from Kelly, the 'Football Team Muddy Buddy' costume creator:
This is my family. Myself and my 6 children. People are always saying I have enough kids for a football team so when my budget was low I thought I would make them into one for Halloween. It was also an idea we could all be together. Suprisingly, everyone was happy with the idea because they could individualize to a degree. Some are zombies and some are pretty. It worked out great to satisfy everyone. I bought 7 white tshirts, 6 cans of spray paint, a few black sweat pants/leggings, and some face paint and hair color. I even got face tattoos for 1$. I spent about 60$ for everyone's outfit total on supplies. We used an old jersey shirt as a pattern to spray paint the base for the shirts then made stencils by drawing on poster board and cutting them out. We spray painted on our porch using an old sheet for a drop cloth. We let them dry outside overnight to get rid of the smell. Everyone can help with stencils or cutting or ideas so it's a really nice family project. My kids range from 4 years to 16 years and they all wanted to be a part of things. We had never done this before. It was just a thought I wanted to see if I could make come to life. I'm so glad I did it. We had fun making them. It really made our halloween memorable and I'll have the shirts as a piece of it forever.
