This homemade costume for boys entered our 2014 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Amy, the 'Mommy's Mummy' costume creator:

My son Kameron wanted to be a mummy this year, which shocked me because I for sure thought he would want to be a super hero or ninja turtle. I bought some fabric from Walmart and cut and ripped it to make the bandages. I soaked the bandages in tea for 5 min, rubbed some black face paint on them, and dried them to create a very old look. I had people stopping him at the two carnivals we went to, so they could get a picture of this original costume. His baby brother is in the pic and I thought if they both went as mummies I could call them Mommy's mummies :) He stayed in character the whole day

My four year old wants to be a mummy for Halloween? How'd the whole bathroom thing work out (I have a daughter) she'll be in school all day and needs to be able to do it by herself? Did you position the bandages in a certain manner?

Hello my son wants to be a mummy this year I'm trying to make it myself was it hard to make it. And can you help me with some more information in how to make it for him please.?

It was very easy!! Underneath the bandages I had him wear a white pajama bottoms or white leggings and had the bandages stop at the waist so he could just pull down. The hardest part was keeping him still!!

How cute! Both my boys (5 && 3) and myself are going as Mummies this year. Did you just have a long sleeve white turtle neck on him? Did you do any glueing or just wrap him up && tie together the day of?
