Baby Bump Jack-o-lantern
Halloween is a little more than a month away. My toddler is ready and surprisingly so is my husband. Together they will be Blue and Steve, thanks to Netflix that is her absolute favorite show. Although I like to dress up in some way for Halloween, I'm not feeling an elaborate costume this year.
Last time I was pregnant I was working full-time at a place that held a costume contest. My friend and I were a carton of milk (me) and a cookie. A big box worked great over my baby bump. That was a lot of work and not very practical, especially while I'm home with a 2 year old.
So this year brings a simple DIY Halloween t-shirt.
I bought a black t-shirt and glitter iron on transfer paper.
I cut out and traced on jack-o-lantern onto the back of the glitter paper.
Then just ironed it on.
I find specialty maternity items can be very expensive. This was under $10! Perfect for trick or treating and a couple other costume events I know my daughter will want to attend.
Tell me, what did you do (are you doing) for Halloween while pregnant?
Thanks for visiting!

Thanks Diana.
Love this idea! I am due in December with my first (a girl!) and while I won't be going trick-or-treating this year it would be fun to wear something festive for the kids who come by. Might just have to give this DIY jack-o-lantern a try :)
Congratulations! It would be super cute to wear just to hand out candy, and easy to do too.
How cute and perfect! (The shirt and your little bump!) Love it! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, Sarah!

This is such a great idea!! Maternity clothing is SO expensive. What a cute and inexpensive alternative to buying something at the store! Thanks for sharing with us at Much Ado About Monday. :)

Thanks Emily, love your party!
So cute, what a great simple idea!
Thanks Lauren!
Did you use a normal t-shirt or was it a maternity style shirt? It looked like from the comments that you just got a normal one from JoAnns, but I wanted to double check. I love this idea!
It's a "normal" maternity shirt. It's regular t-shirt material but fits me! Hope that helps.
Super Cute! & love how easy it looks to do. Thanks for sharing at the party @DearCreatives & hope your having a great week. Theresa
