The Claw Costume

This is my son Cutter dressed as a bear in his very own Claw Machine! This is only his second Halloween but I enjoy making his costumes so much. Last year he was a astronaut with a spaceship so I had to step it up this year. 😉 The entire claw machine is made of foam board except for the letters, styrofoam balls, and the spring I used for the claw. I couldn’t find a joystick that would fit the spot so I made one out of a ping pong ball, smoothie straw and a pop socket! 😂 I spent plenty of nights in front of the tv putting it all together but seeing how cute he is in it made it all worth it!
