Andreah’s Princess Cupcake Costume

Posted by on Saturday, November 8th, 2008

We received this photo and email from ATC Reader Andreah…

“I am absolutely in love with cupcakes! I have a tattoo, Christmas ornaments, dishes, lip gloss, a tattoo, and I was a cupcake for Halloween. I looked on the ATC site for an idea of how to make a cupcake costume and found directions! So thanks for that. I made a few changes to make it my own. My step sister didn’t have a costume and went as my baker, with matching baker hat and oven mitt! Hope you enjoy the pic.”

Thanks for sharing Andreah! Your costume is so cute!

Ruby the Cupcake

Katie Skelton’s Photos – Ruby Cupcake

We received this email and photo from ATC Readers Katie, Garth & Ruby…

“Just wanted to share a picture of our baby girl Ruby’s first Halloween costume. I searched high and low and couldn’t find a cupcake costume so I went ahead and made it myself. I made the top out of fleece and pillow stuffing and glued felt polka dots for sprinkles. The bottom is made from two metal hoops with chocolate brown corduroy stretched over them.
 
Ruby is 8.5 months old and can’t eat candy so instead of trick or treating we went to each of our neighbors and handed out cupcakes!”

Awww! Thanks for sharing! She is so cute!

    Cupcake Costumes 2008 from TN

    Posted by on Saturday, November 1st, 2008

    Here is a collection of Cupcake Costumes from Halloween 2008. While I was making this post I discovered that all of these were from ladies living in TN! :)

    Jen from Knoxville, TN sent us pictures of her Cupcake Costume…

    Taylor from Nashville, TN sent us these photos of a costume she made minus her pink wig, pink striped tights and fabulous makeup.

    And here she is on Halloween…

    Here I am, your very own GreenEyedLillies, as a Hostess Cupcake. Not too bad for a last minute costume I guess. I live outside of Memphis, TN.

    I saw a girl on Beale Street dressed up as a cupcake, but I did not get to take a picture of her. She was wearing a pink sweater with some sprinkles on it, and a mini skirt wrapped in aluminum foil.
