Chelsea from Buy me Love and her hubs are Halloween costume making pros! They participate in a fun church event called Trunk or treat and dress up and decorate the trunk of the truck to hand out candy to the kiddos (or anyone who wants it)! Chelsea made herself a DIY mermaid costume and her turned her trunk into a shell… genius! Chelsea said, “I made my ear “fins” from floral wire and tulle, and meticulously hand sewed sequins. I wore a nude tank top and pinned my hand sewn shells on. Then I sewed a fin, using a skirt as a pattern, and added tulle fins. I was covered in glitter and blue and green makeup, and found that delightfully tacky wig at Goodwill. Don’t worry – it was new and unused!”

Which one is the real Willie? Can you even tell? Ha!

If you’re from Texas, like me, Willie is a staple! Gold Feathers‘ husband was Willie Nelson for Halloween last year. Pretty awesome, huh? Pretty easy to put together too! All you need is a plaid shirt, jeans, a bandanna, sun glasses, and long wig would be good! Oh and how fun is her handmade owl costume?
