Halloween Costume Building Party

Come join the Old Stone House for this Costume Building Community event!

• Are your kids' Halloween costumes ready to go, but you haven't even started on your own?
• Need to make wings, a hat, or some other key accessory to complete a look?
• Maybe you have costumes from last year that you'd like to donate?

We can help!

Let us help you jeuje up your costume and get it Trick-or-Treat ready! Bring your materials and imagination to the Old Stone House and we'll bring the sewing machine, glue, glitter, and know-how.

Old Stone House's Director of Programming, Madeline Wall, is an award winning costume designer and sewing teacher. She'll be available to make alterations/additions with her sewing machine.

Other OSH staff will be armed with hot-glue guns, lots of baubles, trim, and glitter to make your outfit sparkle! They'll be available to give you lots of advice and insight.

Costume donating and swapping is encouraged!

We'll have a limited amount of free materials available on site. (Fabric, felt, construction paper, cardboard, paint, wire, Velcro, glue, elastic, sewing supplies, and more.) But please come prepared with the base of your costume and any specific elements you'd like to include.

Some good examples:

• Bring in your orange tshirt and we'll help you become a jack-o-lantern!

• Bring in your blue dress and we'll help you become the sparkly ice-princess of your dreams!
• You've got an ice cream costume ready to go? Let us help you make a hat that looks like the cherry on top!
