Anne of Green Gables Costume DIY
10/30/2018
It's been a long time since I've watched the original Anne of Green Gables show, but the other month we got the cutest kids book from Raincoast Books, Anne of Green Gables. She also has the novel version from Rifle Paper Co. on her dresser. A little light bulb went off for the cutest Halloween costume. Of course I will be making these kids dress as a couple for as long as possible, right?
This costume was almost free. The only thing I had to buy was the hair color spray. I already had the bag, hat & dress from my vintage shop Kastles (more on that to come soon!), and the shoes and shirt were already in Emery's closet (both of those items I thrifted). The ribbons I cut off from an old costume jewlery necklace that I don't wear anymore. I just used a little water, eyeshadow and a make-up brush for the freckles. I braided her hair first, then sprayed it and then made sure it was dry by using a blow dryer.
Alder's Gilbert Blythe outfit was free! I already had the onesie, cardigan and shoes (Wylo & Co.), and thankfully my bestie had the pants and suspenders. I have pants that could have worked but I couldn't find the suspenders. He surprised me by sitting so still when I painted the freckles on. Now sitting still for pictures (even with yummy snack bribes) did not happen, haha!
The sweetest little Anne. She kept asking if she could be Anne for the rest of the day!
I'm probably going to watch the new Anne with an E on Netflix this week (even though everyone else seems to be into the House on Haunted Hill, I just can't do scary 🙈). Has anyone watched it?
Happy almost Halloween!
