You have no idea how hard it is to be a lefty in a righty world. ![]() They are not perfectly round, because I’m a lefty using righty scissors, and that makes me a terrible cutter-outer. Then I cut circles out of white felt for the eyes and hot glued it inside the rings. If I could come up with this, believe me, it can’t be that hard. This is not a photo by photo tutorial, because I don’t think you’re so dense you can’t figure out how to do some of this on your own. I bought headbands in the sewing section of Walmart, then cut them and sewed them on the rings. But I’m impatient which is why DIY isn’t really my thing. Although I probably should have taken more time getting it smooth. So I used an emery board, again super professional, but it actually worked pretty well. I’m sure my husband has sandpaper in the garage somewhere, but I didn’t want to dig around for it. If it’s too clumpy or you get some where you don’t want it, you can sand it off. You need to let the Weld harden over night. I used a plastic spoon to mix it and apply it, because I’m super professional like that. ![]() (I used waxed paper.) And don’t use anything you can’t throw away. If you use Weld you’ll want to protect your surface. Just follow the directions on the package. You have to mix the contents of the two tubes together. I felt really industrial using that stuff. Then I glued them together using Lock Tite Weld, because I needed something strong that would stick to aluminum. So I started thinking about how I could make the goggles, and this is what I came up with.įirst you’ll need two canning jar lid rings. I looked online, and Despicable Me minion goggles are hard to come by and expensive. But those goggles? Where could I find something like that? So I just need to get one more pair of overalls and one more sweatshirt. David has the overalls and Wade has a yellow sweatshirt. The basic costume is pretty simple: Blue denim overalls, yellow sweatshirt hoodies. So this Halloween they’re going trick-or-treating as Despicable Me minions. We came up with our Halloween costume idea for the boys when we saw Despicable Me 2 in the theater this summer.ĭavid and Wade both love those little minions, and the boys kind of remind me of them with all their mischief and the weird noises they make. UPDATE: Amazon now has these cute minion goggles for sale, and they’re only $9.99 with free shipping for Prime members. ![]()
