The Peanuts Gang Costume

These are my five children wearing the costumes my husband and I made. We did paper mache over beach balls and then spray painted them, added fleece/flannel for the girls' hair and pipe cleaners for the boys' hair and painted their faces with craft paint, Pigpen's dirt is also craft paint. The mouths are covered with a sheer black material that they can see through. We had Pigpen dress in a plain shirt, jeans, and old shoes and go play in a dirt/mud pile before we went trick or treating. We painted the black lines on Charlie Brown's shirt with craft paint and Peppermint Patty's shirt has lines drawn with a sharpie. The other outfits were just pulled from my daughter's closets.
