Hazel Gets New Old Digs

I stopped in the thrift today, promising ONLY to look for some sort of shelving* and nothing else.  They were bringing out the Halloween merchandise in big tubs and everyone was digging in it like crazy people.  Something vintage-y caught my eye, so I swooped in under a bunch of college kids and snatched out this homemade Halloween outfit. 
I bought it with the intention to hang in on the wall.  But, when I got home, I tried it on Hazel and it FIT!  I like the fact that it is homemade and not really anything like a character. I guess it's a clown, but to me it just says Vintage Halloween.

It reminds me of this vintage costume from Country Living. 
I think Hazel looks adorable in it. 

Happy Halloween!

*I need shelving because I signed up for my second Flea Market booth this week.  A new store is opening in the tiny town over that is known for stellar antiques store and Flea Markets.  This store will feature only handmade, upcycled and vintage items and I am going to be one of the featured all vintage booths.  :)  I have a good sized booth and I cannot wait to get it set up.  It is in the town of the Super Cheap Thrift, so it will be so much easier for me to swing by and straighten it up than my other booth across the BIG town.

  1. This is so cute - I was a clown one year, in a homemade costume but it sure wasn't as nice as this one!
