UPDATE: Welcome to those finding this post in search of a parent/baby costume that is coordinated. I hope you try this idea because it is so easy to make. I did use a sewing machine, but you could easily hand stitch the teeth and lips on and sew the shark together. If you have any success or need some help, please don't hesitate to comment & I'll reply! Happy Halloween!!
I just had to do a recreate of
this pin from
pinterest.
Here is what I ended up with, and I think it turned out really cute! It is a great idea for a 3-6 month baby, that can wiggle a little, isn't too upset if they "lose" their feet, and cannot crawl. Bonus is that a parent can be "in" the costume with a lifeguard to the rescue!
I have a short partial tutorial to add later, but for now, enjoy the Halloween festivities (my. favorite. holiday. ever.).
Best. Costume. Ever.

Love the costume - and your sense of humor!
ReplyDeleteThanks you guys, I haven't had a comment in FOREVER! Glad you enjoyed it and I can't wait to see your blogs.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job! I really want to make this... How did you get the shark to stay on the baby?
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicki! I just safety pinned 2 on the front of the onesie and 2 on the back, about an inch below the lip of the shark mouth, so it couldn't be seen. It took about 2 hours to make, I just sketched out the shape of the shark. Good luck!
