Hi,

I'd like to keep our costumes under $10 each this year. Prefer something matching for mom, dad, child and baby. Any links?

I was going to make my own costumes but I'm finding myself resentful that mom is the one doing it for everyone, so I guess we'll buy if I can find for the right price.
I'd love some help.

You can buy hats cheaply, add a few extras, and done. Chefs hats and aprons; baseball caps and stick on numbers for shirts; bunny ears, white clothes, and face paint; doctor/nurse caps, scrubs, toy stethoscope, empty pill bottle; hard hats, cheap orange vests, stop signs. Pick a theme you like, and have fun!

I really really really appreciate this. Will open all the links when I'm at a computer but both sound so cute.

I think I'm going to do the under the sea one. So cute.

ETA- I just showed it to my husband and ordered it, found matching bags as well. I just want to really thank you for taking the time. I don't often open threads because I don't like wasting people's time, but this was just such a big help. I will update you iyh after it comes, or after purim.

I'm bumping up this thread to say THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH for the amother who was so helpful with this. We looked so cute and it wouldn't have happened without those links. I matched our baskets as well and it was just adorable. Thank you very very much.
