We are originally from Florida and The Manatee is by far my favorite animal. It's sweet, friendly and innocent. Just like my little bear. So I attempted to create a Manatee costume without a pattern! I bought a yard and a half of gray fleece (50% off), 2 Black buttons ($.50 on clearance), and some black "floss" to make the nostrils.
I think he like's it don't you? All I have left to do is put velcro down the front and I think I might make some little pants for his legs with the leftover fleece, since they hang out :)
Jess - That costume totally rocks! Great job. It's so fun to see an uncommon costume, too. Way to go!

That is so creative! What a cute little guy and a great costume.
ReplyDeleteSorry this has nothing to do with your manatee costume (which is cute by the way) but I couldn't find another way to contact you. Thanks for stopping by my blog and showing some love for my Edison Lamp. You should go for it! It was SUPER easy to make! ORB stands for Oil Rubbed Bronze. Thanks again for stopping by.
