I’m thrilled to finally share our kids’ Halloween costumes for 2016: Rey and BB-8! (YES, that BB-8 in the picture is a costume) Last weekend, both our little Star Wars fans got all dressed up and we took a bunch of photos. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
I will do detailed write-ups and how-tos of both costumes at a later date. If you have any specific questions before then, feel free to ask in the comments!

Rey is all business while BB-8 is partying it up.

Even a droid wants a snuggle now and again.

Following big sis’ lead!

Who would have guessed that Rey knew how to do a Vulcan Nerve Pinch?
Make sure you check in on Monday, when we will have additional photos from our photo session! UPDATE: You can see them here.
AND, there is still time to enter our Star Wars bracelet Giveaway. Click here for all the details.
omg that BB-8 costume is too cute! I thought it was a prop at the first photo until I saw it’s an actual costume lol! The Rey looks awesome too.

Thank you so much! Since I tend to just “wing it” when make our costumes, I was a bit worried about the BB-8’s practicality, but it worked our well. It is pretty flexible and very light weight so it was very easy to maneuver and wear. (Where as the R2-D2 my son wore last year was a bit awkward)

Thank you! I am so sorry, I just have not had time to post the most recent patterns. The BB-8 I a really large paper lantern covered in white duct tape… which then is covered in fleece. (The duct tape was needed so it would keep its shape). The head is a foam dome from from JoAnn, also covered in duct tape. Good Luck!
