Sorcerer Mickey Costume

We were planning a trip to Disney World and planned to attend the Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Sydney already had a Minnie Mouse costume I had purchased. I talked Kyle into being Sorcerer Mickey.

I found some costumes, but they were vintage and very expensive. I decided to try to make it myself. I thought a lot about the cape part and how to make the collar. I looked at many, many images on Google. Finally I was ready to cut my fabric. It went together pretty well. I purchased a Sorcerer Mickey hat and found blue shiny athletic pants which I shortened to long shorts. I also got black leggings and a long sleeve black shirt. When it was all put together, there was no mistaking, Kyle was Sorcerer Mickey.
Unfortunately it was unseasonably HOT in Disney that October and Kyle couldn't tolerate the costume for long.

Disney Bound Inspirations

Planning a trip to Disney World can give you all kinds of ideas!

My daughter was coincidentally dancing to the Mickey Mouse March as we were planning this trip. I decided to make the girls little hobo bags and a tote for me.


The dance teacher was expecting a new baby and already had a baby and preschooler at home. So I thought a nice carrier would be the perfect gift. The other moms chipped in and the Mickey Mouse carrier was created!



Around this time another friend was having a baby and lived near Disneyland. I made her baby one of my texture quilts with a Mickey Mouse theme. Some of the squares have vintage Mickey mouse fabric from my mom's old stash.
