DIY couple Halloween costume: The Princess and The Pea

For our first Halloween as a married couple we were The Princess and The Pea, you know from the children's story. I really wanted to be something clever and catchy and I had thought of this idea a couple months ago. Clark thought it was a good idea as well and so that is what we went with. Most people got what we were and some people had to be told that it was a couple costume and not just one or the other. Some people guessed Clark was a pear, frog ?, Mike Wazowski (from Monsters Inc.) but once they realized it was a couple costume then they got it right away.
How we made the costumes:
Carlee's: The Princess
-Pink Senior Year Prom dress
-Pink crown
-Hair and makeup 
-Done

Clark's : The Pea
-We ordered this beach ball online
-And paper mached it
-Cut the holes out for head, arms, and legs.
-Bought a mini sample paint from Home Depot and painted it green
-Done
So this was our 2013 DIY Halloween Costume. We were very happy with how it turned out and since Halloween is my favorite holiday, I like having a great costume. It is also really fun to have a partner in crime to dress up with. I am already thinking of what we should be for next year... What do you think?
love, Carlee
