This DIY Hot Air Balloon Costume is a project I’ve been wanting to share with you guys for awhile now. This costume is actually from my book DIY Box Creation that came out a couple years ago.

Since Halloween is right around the corner I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do that! I just LOVE working on DIY costumes for my boys. My most popular costumes are my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Costume and No Sew Super Hero Costume. But this Hot Air Balloon costume has become one of my favorites by far. It’s such a simple project to do and all you need are a couple items!

So let’s get started!

Supplies for this Craft:

Cardboard Box
Sharpie
X-Acto Knif
Wooden Dowel
Ribbon
Balloons
Burlap Bags

She’s looks perfect in this costume and had a great time with the photoshoot. The hat and rain boots really finishes the look off, don’t you think?!
