![]() So I made Z-bands for the girls, and they were so much fun. If you have seen Disney Zombies, you know all Zombies need a Z-band. Then I just pulled her hair into pigtails and tied them with lime green ribbon. Two trips to Disney and they are holding up great! P re-wore the green leather moccasins from her Green Alien costume too. I plan to take off the flowers when we are done with the costume so the shirt and skirt can be worn as clothing again. I bought these bright burlap gem flowers at Hobby Lobby and tacked them on to the red shirt and skirt with a couple of quick stitches. If you like the tutu look, Amazon has tons of inexpensive tutus. I found red skirts on Kidizen I almost bought, but I went with what we had. While Zoey doesn’t exactly wear a tutu, the skirt was a hand-me-down we had in the closet. This is the shirt I purchased from Amazon. The green shirt was reused from her Green Alien costume from Toy Story Land. (Use coupon code wab4s when you sign up to get $5 free credit!) It was $7 shipped and looked like it was never worn. I purchased the red corduroy shirt on the shopping app Kidizen. Her DIY Zoey costume was also second-hand pieces. Although mom wasn’t keen on spraying a one-year-old’s hair green (much to Sissy’s dismay), it turned out super cute. But the knockoff is much less expensive.įor an extra layer of cuteness, P was Zoey. If you prefer the official look, you can buy the official costume. And this pink and green cheerleading costume was perfect.ĭon’t mind the woman wearing the costume in the photo, these are defiantly youth sizes. (Sorry!) But since the official costume wasn’t available yet, we had to find something that worked. Then came Sissy’s favorite part – the green hairspray. I cut my logo with a 4.5-inch diameter.Īttach the heat transfer vinyl according to package directions. If I didn’t have my silhouette, I would probably cut out a large green circle and then cut an “S” out of the middle of it. Thanks to my husband for helping me recreate the logo, he did such a great job! This one would be much harder to cut out by hand since it is so intricate (sorry!). ![]() I also used heat transfer vinyl to create the Seabrook Lab logo. If you don’t need a lot of vinyl, you can also buy this smaller pack of heat transfer vinyl. I bought this package of heat transfer vinyl to create K’s Buzz Lightyear costume this summer, so I had extra black and green vinyl to work with. The easiest way to do this is with a Silhouette machine, but if you don’t have one you can cut the vinyl by hand using the template I created. I used heat transfer vinyl to create the Zombie language around the neck of the red shirt. I think Eliza would approve of the rough edges and practicality of not overheating. I ended up cutting off the sleeves of the long sleeve denim shirt since it was 90+ degrees at Disney. Even after a full night at Disney, they still look the same as when I first cut them. Then I pinched the tights away from her skin and made snips. I had her put the tights on so I could see the right placement of the holes. So look in your closet too!įor the leggings, I took a pair of scissors to a pair of black footless tights. It worked perfectly and Sissy thought it was totally something Eliza would do. Tip, I bought a women’s red shirt, then I cut the sleeves and tied the edges together to take up the slack.

I scored the skirt, denim shirt and red shirt at the thrift store. Although we switched things up a bit, this is Eliza’s look we recreated. Because Zombies are a little rough around the edges, thrift store chic is perfect for this costume. Whether it is the cool-teenager vibe or the green hair, Sissy loves Eliza. So I am sharing how we used thrift store finds to create our costumes - no sewing required! DIY Disney Zombies Eliza Costume In the end, I like the way our DIY Disney Zombies costumes came out even better than the official ones. ![]() Unfortunately, none of the official costumes were available until early September and we went in August. The motion-activated light-up bracelets were a hit. My favorite part of the costumes was the easy DIY Z-bands. The girls were thrilled to be recognized by lots of fans at the party, I think having the cheerleader with the zombie helped with that. So much so that Sissy got the great idea that they should dress up as Eliza, Addison and Zoey for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party 2018. Have your kids watched Disney Zombies? Have your kids watched it and listened to the soundtrack on repeat – over and over? Mine are obsessed with the movie.
