Mama Monday : Star Wars Weekends, to dress up or not?

Hi Mamas! Star Wars Weekends at Walt Disney World are a ton of fun! You may not realize it if you haven't been before but people dress up for this event. I would say as much as Halloween at Disney! The first time I went to Star Wars Weekend I had no idea what to expect(this was many years ago). The kids in costumes were the cutest. Now if you are crafty, I am sure you have no problem coming up with a costume idea. But the rest of us mamas need help. Etsy is my friend when it comes to craftiness that I am not gifted with!

Please note that I have personally not purchased from the following Etsy shops, these are just items I find to be pretty cute for your little Jedis!


This is perfect if you want something but not necessarily a full blown costume! Plus remember it is HOT in May and June in Orlando. This cape will work with any shorts and tshirt combo to keep your little Yodas cool too.

For those of you that want to go all in-these costumes are perfect!

And for those of you that are crafty but need a pattern-check out this vintage pattern set you can buy and sew your own!

And a slight variation to the above options is to go themed but not actually in a costume. For that I love OMG Adorable! This is someone I know and love dearly. I purchase from OMG quite a bit and her work is OMG ADORABLE!  

This is her facebook shop. Her shop will reopen this week. My kids have all kinds of her shirts. The quality is outstanding and the kids love them. Check out her albums and you are sure to find something and if you don't see what you want, just message her and she will find it for you. Tell her Chick Melissa sent you over!

Dressing up your Jedi Learners in their Padawan gear has never been easier! There's something for everyone out there. Have fun with it! There will be some pretty elaborate people out there to check out and it's fun to get dressed up!
