Create a Homemade Peter Pan Halloween Costume
Adjust the length of the t-shirt so it ends at your lower thigh. Use scissors to create a zig-zag hem on the edges of the green t-shirt, including the neckline, sleeves and bottom. Take the green felt fabric and cut out a large square. Pull the edges of the square backwards to create a conical shape and glue gun the ends. Use a glue gun to attach the red feather in order to create the signature cap.
Draw a sword shape on the box and cut it out with scissors. Cover the area above the hilt with tin foil to create a metallic look or simply purchase a costume prop sword instead. Wear the green stockings, leather sandals, and put on the green zig-zag shirt as a tunic, cinching it at the waist with the brown leather belt. Secure the cap onto your head with bobby pins and carry your sword with you for your next Neverland adventure!

Create Your Own Colorful Punky Brewster Costume
Begin by putting on the clothing in layers. Start by wearing the denim jeans and the long-sleeved shirt on the bottom layer. Wear the bright blue hoodie sweatshirt, and roll both cuffs up together so the shirt on the bottom layer shows. Put the white undershirt over the sweatshirt and cuff the sleeves twice. Finally, don the denim vest over the undershirt layer to create Punky’s ragtag look.
Decorate the denim vest with buttons and patches, preferably ones from the 1980s. Pull on your legwarmers over your jeans and tie bandanas over your pants. Pull your hair into two pigtails and secure with ponytail holders. You can also use a brunette wig with bangs to create this effect. Finish Punky’s look off by carrying a toy stuffed dog as Brandon, Punky’s faithful canine friend.

Wrap the red fabric around you, draping it over your head and clasping it at the collarbone to wear as you would a cape. Have a friend mark where your fingers are holding each side of the fabric.
