The Sanderson Sisters Costume

We put a spell on you! Left to right we have Mary Sanderson (Caitlin), Winifred Sanderson (Danielle) and Sarah Sanderson (Katie). Lifelong fans of Hocus Pocus, we finally pulled the trigger and got a head start on our bewitching transformations two months before Halloween. After countless trips to Goodwill, Savers and Michaels, we began assembling our costumes. Mary Sanderson's costume is made from tablecloths and a hand dyed peasant top. Although she's a natural blonde with glasses, Caitlin fully committed and even sprayed her hair black and bought special contacts for the night. Danielle's grandmother helped with the purple dress for Winifred and Danielle hand painted and embellished all of the gold detailing on the green velvet cloak. Sarah Sanderson's skirt was a combination of a repurposed bridesmaid dress and tablecloth sewn together. She also carried around a fake spider and a lucky rat tail. And yes, we made those facial expressions all night long!

Collectively with wigs, props, supplies, and manpower hours, our estimated spend was ~$550
