This homemade costume for women entered our 2017 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Kristin, the 'Bald Eagle in Nest with Baby Eaglet' costume creator:

I, Kristin, am wearing the costume. My mom is obsessed with eagles and I’ve seen a few in the wild so I thought it would be a fun project to do together. I added moss and real tree branches to the nest to look as though the nest was in a tree. I got styrofoam eggs and cut one open to place a baby bird in it made from styrofoam and fabric trim that had little gray and silver balls on it. I bought all the feathers off of eBay and glued them on satin ribbon to make the collar and glued them on paper to make the tail. I glued brown ones on to a brown dress. I wired the nest to a belt to easily take on and off. I glued the tail to a seperate belt so it would hang over the nest. It cost me about $100 total with all the different materials, make up and jewels on my face too.

This is a fabulous homemade costume depicting a mother Bald Eagle in her nest with her baby eaglet and another egg not yet hatched. The nest is very realistic with the moss, eggs and eaglet as are her face paint, hair and tail. The many feathers in multiple colors in hair, on dress and on eaglet also add realism to this costume. A lot of planning and hard work went into this costume and it shows!
