Introduction: My Sparkley TMNT (Toddler Mutant Ninja Turtle) Costume!

My little girl is 16 months old, and with comic book loving, cartoon watching, never-gonna-grow-up parents, she couldn't have just that standard pretty pretty princess costume this year for halloween. I made her costume last year and this year was going to be no different. The idea hatched from her father's insistence that she have weapons coupled with my love of glitter and exploded from there.

Several trips to JoAnn fabrics, use of fabric paint, glitter, and acrylic mediums from Jerry's Artarama and my sparkley TMNT (Toddler Mutant Ninja Turtle) was born! I hope you like it as much as I did creating it! Little stinker couldn't get over how much she shimmered and often showed her appreciation by trying to take out my eye with her glitter ninja weapon. In retrospect her father may not have as much say in next year's costume...
