Easy DIY Cow Costumes for Kids

September 25, 2015 By meredith 9 Comments

It’s still September, but I’ve definitely got Halloween costumes on the brain right now.  We had our first ever family themed costumes last year that were a huge hit and super fun to put together.  This year we’ll be continuing the tradition with some awesome Batman themed costumes.  For a super quick and EASY costume idea for kids, babies, or even adults, you could make these Easy Cow T-Shirts!  We wore ours this year at Chick-fil-a’s Dress Like a Cow Day!

To make your own, all you’ll need are:

plain, white t-shirts
black felt
fabric glue
black ribbon
scissors

Now, using your sharp fabric scissors, cut out some rounded, funky shapes out of the black felt.   I used about two sheets to make three shirts.

Once the black pieces were cut, I laid them out on each shirt before applying fabric glue to the back of each and attaching them to the shirts.  You’ll notice I also cut the sleeves off of one of them for my little girl.  I then tied on a black ribbon to the top of each sleeve to make it a little more cutesy for her.

Here’s the finished product…

Super duper simple and so cute on your little ones. Just take a look at these sweet babies…

I’m pretty sure my oldest is mooing in the picture instead of saying cheese.  

Here are a few other Halloween costumes from past years.
