Kyle – Wow! Those are some cool helmets. My boys do like Star Wars so I will probably be attempting these one year!

Those are some fun costumes. I really like the robot and the truck. When your kids get older try one of these Star Wars helmets made out of sheet cardboard. This one is a link to Boba Fett's helmet http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-a-cardboard-costume-helmet/ I tried making it and it works very well.

Another tip – if you’re having trouble getting a heavier item to stick onto the painted cardboard (like the gift box with lights on the robot) use zip ties to help hold it on.

Cath - If you know what accessories you want, the robot should take two nights. One to cut, glue and paint the cardboard and one to accessorize. The inspiration for the lights hit me on night three and I just had to see if it would work – we laughed so much when we turned them on!

Those are so cute and creative! I love the lights on the robot. What a neat idea. How long did it take you to make the robot?

Carol T – Glad you liked it! All my son told me one year was that he wanted to be a “red truck” – so this is what I came up with. Since I only had time to work on it after his bedtime, it took me three nights. One night to cut, one to glue and paint and the last to decorate! It was a lot of fun!

Brilliant! These are adorable. Thanks for including instructions too. I was pulling my hair out trying to think of what to make my little guy for Halloween and now I know! He loved the truck! I guess I’m off to Michael’s to get some hot glue. Thanks, this was a great inspiration.
