It’s Day 2 of Design Dazzle’s Halloween Bash, and I’m sharing another super cute (and ridiculously easy) Halloween costume idea for Maxwell! He has quite the collection for Halloween 2014, ha! We’ve done a cheeseburger, game boy, koala bear, panda bear, and now an organic carrot! I’ve got lots DIY costume ideas too! I think he actually likes my dress up games and photo shoots! Here’s Maxwell in his carrot costume enjoying a carrot!
Here’s what you need to make your very own carrot costume:
- orange onesie (Here is a good one on Amazon.
)
- 2 colors of green tulle
- elastic
- needle and thread
- white mailing labels
- thin sharpies
I have the Rit Dye in the picture because I attempted to dye the elastic green. It kind of worked, but since I tied the tuelle around the elastic you can’t see the band anyway. I’d skip that step if I were you!
I measured Maxwell’s head with the elastic and cut a piece where it would fit around his comfortably. Then, I hand stitched it together with a needle and thread. You can see my pathetic attempt at dying the elastic green in this picture…
I just cut 6 inch wide or so strips of tulle and tied them around the elastic band… easy freakin’ peasy, y’all! Then all I had to do was make the organic stickers! I used white mailing labels because I had those on hand and a quarter to to trace around and make a pretty circle…
Here’s a close up of his USDA Organic sticker and 100% natural!
I love that this costume does not mess up the onesie at all! Just take the 2 stickers off and voila, you’ve got your orange onesie back for everyday wearing! How stinkin’ cute is my giant organic carrot?!

Oh my gosh…this is so stinkin’ adorable! He looks pretty happy about it too! Thanks so much for sharing with us at Share The Wealth Sunday!
SO cute! My DD (now 20) was a red M&M when she was an infant. Not nearly as healthy but super cute!
Too cute!! Most adorable carrot I’ve ever seen! Love it!
Oh no you didn’t! LOL – this is ADORABLE! One of my favourite baby costumes I’ve ever seen.
So sweet!
Thanks for sharing (and for linking up to the #SHINEbloghop).
Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Halloween is so fun! I love this simple costume idea and OMG, could that picture be any cuter?!? Thank you for sharing on Family Joy Blog Link-Up Party. We hope to see you again next week!
This is so stinkin’ cute I can hardly stand it!! My kiddos are too big for this but I have a few friends that just had babies… maybe I can talk them into letting me make this for them! Sharing!!
That is so adorable!
How stinking cute! Love this idea!
OMG this is truly adorable! Your picture is so precious!!! Makes me wish my boys were still babies to do this. 🙂
Oh my goodness! Extreme cuteness!! Thank you for sharing at the Thursday Favorite Things blog hop. Watch for your feature on Monday xo
This is so adorable, and it seems easy enough that a sleep deprived momma could do it. Thanks for sharing.
Yes! Perfect for sleep deprived mamas 🙂
This is so cute, I once dressed my youngest as a ladybird when he was a baby – just dots on a red all in one. He is 16 now so probably wont want to be a carrot any time soon but I still think it’s the cutest darn thing ever!
Thank you! I would love to see lady bug pictures 🙂
So absolutely crunchy! I mean cute! And creative!
Oops, forgot to say here from TUT.
This is the cutest little carrot ever!
I would love if you share your costume with my fall themed party Big Autumn Bash.
