Indiana Jones Halloween Costume Set Up

Dexie Wharton — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 02:19:07 +0000

Like I reported last month about my son’s wish to be Indiana Jones for Halloween this year, I “created” his costume instead of buying the cheap set from Wal-Mart or the more expensive one, yet the same set from online stores and Toys’R'Us.

I came up with something more expensive, BUT, I made the right decision in doing it this way coz all the stuff I found for the costume, except the fedora hat and whip, will transition into his regular wardrobe and winter clothes. Let me show them to you.

Fedora Hat and Whip, from Ebay for $14.99

tan brown polo shirt, Old Navy, $9.50. I settled for a polo shirt because I couldn’t find a plain light brown dress shirt.

The rest of the Indiana Jones costume after the fold…

Dark Khakis, Wal-Mart, $10

Dark Brown Sherpa Jacket, Old Navy, $29.99. yes we know, Indiana Jones’ jacket has no hood, ON was my last stop for a brown jacket after searching everywhere.

With the exception of the hat and whip which will probably go into the toy box, the polo shirt, pants, and jacket will still be part of his everyday clothing after Halloween. The jacket will be his Winter jacket for this year since it’s a Sherpa jacket anyway. That $30 is definitely a good investment. BTW, we don’t get much snow, if anything at all here in North Carolina. But just in case, he has 2 other quilted winter jackets from previous years so YES, he’s covered this year .

Halloween Costume : Toilet Bowl

The Toilet Bowl Halloween Costume is nothing new. I’ve seen it so many times at my son’s school from it’s past Halloween Assembly parades. It’s still hilarious though. I mean, just imagine having a conversation with your child about not wanting to be a superhero or a Princess this Halloween. He/she wants to be a toilet bowl instead. Cute .

If you are crafty like Martha Stewart, you could probably make a toilet bowl costume using a cardboard box, white paint and something blue for the toilet water. Bless your heart if you’re doing all that work. If you’re like me who prefers to do things easy on Halloween, you can buy this toilet bowl costume at Target for $46.99. Expensive, no? OH well, it’s fun .

Cheer Bear from Care Bears. She loves Care Bears. Her crib set is from Care Bears and she has lots and lots of them happy colorful pastel bears. I found the costume from Ebay like months ago. Ebay is the best place for hard to find costumes. I think I only paid $12. Shipping was free.

I took a picture of her sitting with all her Care Bear friends. She got a kick out of it.
