One Babysuit, Five Costumes

If you just realized that Halloween is just under two weeks away and you don’t have a costume for baby yet, fear not! We’re here to help with five easy DIY ideas that use just one super soft black babysuit and a few basic craft supplies. All these costumes work great for kids, too – shop black kids’ PJ separates to use as the perfect costume base.
