When your son decides that he wants nothing more than to be a CatiCorn for Halloween, you scratch your head for a minute and then figure out a way to make that work. After he saw one on a cup, he simply HAD to be that and I thought long and hard about how to make that happen – I then thought of the mecca for all things COSTUME – Party City!
To put his costume together, I knew we had to get creative. With TONS of accessories and plenty of costume choices, I knew we would find SOMETHING. So we started with the basics. When I asked an associate there to help me out, she was ready and willing to find what I needed.
First, we snagged a rainbow unicorn costume. Fun, bright, and colorful – it was just what he had envisioned. It came with a skirt that was extremely itchy and huge, so he wanted me to cut that portion off. Rainbow leg and arm warmers were the perfect fit along with a headband with a unicorn crown. I thought about painting his face with whiskers, but knew the make-up might bother his sensitive skin. We then headed for the accessories to look for a mask – we found the perfect one there.
Once we made our adjustments, we were all set. Who knew we could find everything we needed to be a CatiCorn at Party City?
Who knows what you might be able to scare up there?
