Thing 2's ketchup costume is finished!
One I finished making the labels (materials: felt, hot glue gun, and puffy paint), I just had to make the actual bottle shape.
I didn't have a pattern, so I literally laid my little ketchup kid down on the felt and did a police outline of his body.
Unfortunately, my ketchup kid (Thing 2) wasn't being very cooperative after the initial measurements, so luckily I had a clone happy to step in for the "fittings".
Finished product.
I plan on having Thing 2 wear a red shirt under the costume. I'll have to have a long sleeve one on stand-by in case it gets cold. No jacket is going on over this costume!
And, I've already finished the labels for Thing 1's mustard costume.
Seriously, I love Halloween! When Steve Jobs tells the world to follow your passions, I think to myself "Self, why can't you find a job where you get paid to make Halloween costumes all year long?" :)
