This year I tried hard to shop the kids’ closets for Halloween, but I still wanted them to feel extra special. What kid doesn’t want to dress up and transform into someone completely different on Halloween (and any other day, for that matter)?
This year I was able to create Eve’s Garden Butterfly Fairy costume for just $3, using items in her closet and three Dollar Store accessories!
From her closet and dress up bin, we assembled this from a tutu, a little lace tank, a flower accessory and her floral halo/crown. Then, I picked up a pair of fairy / butterfly wings and some paper butterflies from the Dollar Store. Not shown here: I picked up a butterfly wand glow stick from the Dollar Store for her to carry for fun and safety while trick-or-treating. Don’t have everything you see here? Shop the look:
- Tank here or here
- Tutu
- Floral Halo/Crown here, here or here
- Paper Butterflies
- Butterfly / Fairy wings
- Fairy butterfly wand here or here

Too cute! That ruffled tank top is adorable and the whole outfit looks like you spent a lot of time putting it together instead of just pulling out things you already had.

This is a really cute costume idea! It is always great when you can find and put together costumes for kids using clothing they already have. Thank you for sharing and linking up with us over at the Welcome Home Wednesdays Link Party!
