DIY Firecracker Costume for Halloween

DIY Firecracker Costume for Halloween | Club Crafted

DIY Firecracker Costume for Halloween | Club CraftedDo you have a firecracker personality? Well, show it off for Halloween! I’m all about easy-to-throw-together Halloween costumes, and I think this firecracker costume hits that mark. My favorite costumes are ones that use items you already have in your home or can be disassembled so that you can reuse your clothing, and that’s exactly what this costume did for me. I was able to reuse both the dress and the headband without any damage done from the costume. Whatever your Halloween plans are, I think you’ll love whipping up this costume based on a TNT firecracker, complete with a topper that’s ready to explode! 

With this firecracker Halloween costume, I think you’ll walk in and BLOW UP a Halloween party ?

A quick note about vinyl – I used regular sticker vinyl for this so that it could be easily removed and the dress could be reworn. If you prefer, you can use iron-on vinyl to make a more permanent firecracker dress, but remember to print/cut the “N” backwards so that it will transfer properly. 

DIY Firecracker Costume for Halloween | Club CraftedTime: 15 minutes

Supplies:

  • Red dress
  • Yellow vinyl (regular, not iron-on)
  • Headband
  • Foil star garlands in red, white + blue

Step 1: Cut out large block letters from the yellow vinyl in letters “TNT.” Mine were about 6 inches tall. This can be done by hand or with a cutting machine.

Twist them together about 1/2 of the way and then twist the bottom around the middle of the headband so that it sticks straight up from the top. You should have three pieces sticking out randomly from the top.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
