These DIY Disney costumes are awesome examples of how to bring two-dimensional characters from some of the most iconic animated films to life in the real world.
Buying store-bought costumes year after year for Halloween can be a costly expense, but with just a little creativity, the looks of classic Disney characters can be inexpensively brought to life.
Since classic cartoon characters have a few characteristics or elements that they are easily recognized by, these looks can easily be replicated with the inclusion of the right accessory or color combination. Some of the more modern takes include updating the outfits of Disney characters with hipster style glasses or modifying the shapes of their outfits. These DIY Disney costumes are perfect for conventions, Halloween and theme parties.
