WANT TO MAKE THE CRAZY PURPLE MINIONS?Ĭlick here or on the photo below for that tutorial (very similar to this one!) Please click here for further explanation. Just sayin’!) :)ĭisclosure: Some links in this post are affiliate/referral links. Can you imagine how funny it would be if you had a whole mess of kids out trick-or-treating as a group of Minions?! Love it! (By the way, the kiddos below won their fair share of “Best Costume Contests” last year. This costume idea might even be more relevant this year since Despicable Me 2 came out this past summer. You might even have much of what you need! And it cost very little–I spent maybe $10-15 or so.
You just need to allow some time to let the paint dry in between steps. (I had only been blogging for a week back then! Time flies!) It really was so easy. When I made my girls’ Minion costumes, I took pictures along the way so I could share the tutorial with all of you.
#FAMILY MINION COSTUMES HOW TO#
We moms searched and searched for a good costume that we could simply buy and be done with it, but they were all pretty expensive, and honestly, they were terrible.Īnd then my friend came up with this awesome idea and told us how to do it.
#FAMILY MINION COSTUMES MOVIE#
I can say that because I didn’t come up with it my super-creative friend did! Last fall, two of my daughters and a few of their friends all decided they wanted to be “Minions” together (from the movie Despicable Me). They’ve dressed the minions up in their own costumes, my kids love the baby minion the best! Allie of No Time for Flash Cards made a darling matching game out of these printables, perfect for a classroom party game!įollow these Minions of Despicable Me on Facebook, visit the official website, and watch the teaser trailer for Despicable Me 2.This Halloween costume idea is simply genius. Create Treat bags, Homemade Minion Tattoos, Pumpkin Carving Template, and Candy Wrappers.
#FAMILY MINION COSTUMES DOWNLOAD#
These cute silly hats are getting me excited for Despicable Me 2, coming out next summer, yippee! As well as these super fun Halloween printables to download for free. I might even make one for me, it’s that cute!! We decided to place our goggles on the kid’s forheads, but if you make your elastic long enough, you could easily place these goggles right on the kids eyes.Īdd a yellow long sleeve shirt, blue overalls, black gloves and boots, and you’re set to be a minion for Halloween. Now you’re ready to mix and match your hat to your goggles.
Stretch it around to the other side of the tube and staple it to the second tube. To attach the elastic, fold over your elastic 1/4 of an inch and staple it to the inside of the tube. Once your paper tubes are dry, staple them together in the center of the tubes, side by side.Ĥ. Paint your tubes with your silver paint and let it dry completely.ģ. Depending on how many eyes you want your minion to have, cut a second tube section as well.Ģ. With your scissors, adult only, cut off a section of paper tube, 1/2 inch thick. black elastic – 1 inch in width, 12-18 inches long (depending on your child’s head size)ġ.wrapping paper tube or paper towel tube.Or to make the hair that is sticking up all over, space the threaded pipe cleaner 1 inch apart. Bend each piece of pipe cleaner up to stick out.
If you go slow, it threads right through the knit hat.ģ. At the top of your hat, take a piece of pipe cleaner and thread it through the hat.
Every minion has a different style of hair, so this is where you can get creative.Ģ. Cut your pipe cleaners to your desired length. yellow snow hat – a knit hat works best for threading the pipe cleaner (you could also hot glue the “hair” to any yellow snow hat)ġ.So I was happy to partner with Universal Pictures on a sponsored post for a quick and easy last minute Despicable Me Minion costume. It was fun for us to make and create this last minute costume, something you could put together in just a couple of hours, ready for a night of trick or treating. These minions from Despicable Me are our absolute favorite characters. It’s quick and easy, and oh so cute… Minions!! We are only days away from Halloween and it’s crunch time people! But have I got the perfect idea for you.
