Let's face it: the costumes you can buy at the store are that charming combination of cheaply made and ridiculously expensive... so why not make your own Halloween costume? Even the least crafty among us (like me!) can make a few that don't even require a stitch of sewing; some require as much skill as sewing on a button. Like these!

This adorable costume is a sweet treat for any parent looking to dress up their little one with minimal fuss. All you need is a tan or brown-colored onesie as the base, and then create the frosting with a piece of pastel fabric or felt. Cut a wavy circle for the frosting, and don’t forget to add colorful cut-out shapes to mimic sprinkles. Attach it all together with fabric glue for a costume that's as easy as it is cute. Your tiny tot will be the center of attention in this delicious ensemble—just like a baby donut at a coffee morning!
