Remudamom Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I need help coming up with a costume for my pony. Every year she pulls a wagon into town and I hand out candy. She's been cotton candy and a zebra. This year I'm thinking about a unicorn but can't find a horn I that isn't expensive OR painting a skeleton on her (hard) Any ideas? I need to start practicing.

momma2three Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 A Pegasus? Last year DD was a butterfly, and I found some instructions for wings made out of foam and covered with fabric on a Martha Stewart website. It would probably be pretty easy to modify the wings so you could attach them to a horse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Make her a horn out of a paper towel tube and rolled paper. Spray paint it, or cover it w/ colored duct tape. Attachment is for you to figure out. I can't do everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobela Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 All-Terrain Armored Transport from Star Wars. Ok, I know this is on a dog, but I think it could work for a horse too. Maybe you couuld make part of it from large cardboard boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audrey Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) I found this. Lots of neat ideas. Maybe one will inspire you? I'm personally kind of partial to the 1-horse power John Deere tractor. Looks like mostly cardboard. I love the bucket on the front. :D Edited September 2, 2012 by Audrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astrid Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 They're not as big as ponies (almost!) but one year when Molly was about four we dressed her up as a circus lion tamer and made great big lion manes out of yarn and she went up to every door as a tiny circus performer with her "lions." She got a LOT of candy that year, and the "lions" got a few milk bones! astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol in Cal. Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Celebrating Halloween is wrong. Homeschoolers should not do this. Neither should anyone else. I am appalled at the OP. Horrible. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Celebrating Halloween is wrong. Homeschoolers should not do this. Neither should anyone else. I am appalled at the OP. Horrible. :lol: Buwahahahaaa! I would dress the pony up like the pony/horse in Nanny McPhee. I love that movie. I also agree that making a unicorn horn out of paper mache would be easy. They also have styrofoam forms in the floral section of most craft stores that could work. If nothing else, it would be a great form for the paper mache. Post pics!
