Brittany Watson Jepsen, the creative genius behind The House That Lars Built [1], promised herself that she wouldn't turn her blog into a "mommy blog" until she had kids.

And although she isn't a mother yet, when it comes to Halloween [2], Jepsen just can't resist getting creative with kids' costumes. From classics like The Giving Tree to newer hits like Jimmy Fallon [3]'s Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada, Jepsen drew inspiration from children's books and crafted some adorable DIY [4] Halloween costumes. Whether you're looking for ideas for siblings, parent/child, or just one for your little one, you'll love Jepsen's takes on some of your all-time favorite characters.
