I made this this no sew Minnie Mouse Halloween costume before I got into this whole blogging business. I made it for ‘S’ when she was two years old. It is probably one of the easiest and quickest costumes I ever made.
I had not planned to make this no sew Minnie mouse costume. I wanted the take the easy route and buy a ready made costume. But, after seeing the type of costumes that were available in the store and comparing the price and quality of the costumes, I decided to make one for her.
I came upon this red long sleeve T-Shirt with matching full skirt in Sam’s Club and I think it was on sale for $6. Even though it was not the right color (Minnie Mouse costume is orange-red), I decided to buy it as I planned on using it for other occasions too.
I found some sheets of Felt with adhesives on the back. After I came home I traced couple of circles on the sheet with a nickel. Cut the circles and removed the paper backing and stuck it on the T-shirt and skirt randomly.
I used a Minnie mouse headband which I had bought from our previous trip to Disney World. To complete the costume, I made ‘S’ wear black tights and red shoes.
Once we were done with Halloween and all the trick and treating, I removed all the felt circles and used this as a regular dress for quiet some time.

Smart thinking! I love what you did with this! She looks adorable!
So cute!
She is so cute and adorable! I too have a Minnie Mouse fan, and she’d love to dress up as Minnie! thank you for the inspiration xx
You did a great job putting this together! So cute!
Babs you did a great job with this. I’m going to have to have you make me one for Madison. LOVE IT!
Your minnie mouse turned out awesome. Your daughter is just adorable in it.
That is super cute! & I love how the dress can be worn again afterwards.
Very creative and what an adorable Halloween contest and little girl. It is fantastic that you were able to use this dress way past the Halloween costume. I bet it made for a pretty party dress.
Oh so cute. Your model is amazing and the costume looks great.
Great idea! It’s totally my kind of costume to make, plus it’s adorable.
Well it’s a very cute Minnie costume! Maybe I should make the adult version 😛
This costume is so cute. I like how easy it was to make.
That is a great diy costume idea! Wish I would have seen this sooner. We are leaving for Disney in 2 days and this would have been a fun one for my daughter to wear there!
Look at her! She looks so cute you did a great job on the costume.
You had me at no sew! S looks adaorable. She seems to really love it. Great job on the costume!
She looks so cute. I love that it was no sew!
That is the cutest Halloween costume! I can’t wait until my grandkids get here. I am getting a girl and a boy and a mickey and minnie costume would be adorable!
How sweet! She looks adorable. We love Minnie!
I love how you removed the circles and used it again. One of the reasons I don’t get into the whole dressing up idea is that costumes are so expensive and useless after one day. Great post (and I adore Minnie Mouse!)
What a cute model! And cute Minnie Mouse costume
She is the cutest little Minnie Mouse in that costume, and I love that you took off the polka dots to make it a regular dress afterwards!
She looks so cute in her Minnie Costume. I remember when my little girl would wear costumes like this.
This no sew Minnie Mouse looks adorable on her! Thinking I will take the lazy route and buy one. Last year we tried to make his costume and it was fun but took a LONG time lol
This is brilliant! I am a terrible sewer so I never thought to try and make costumes.
Homemade costumes are the best. They’re always so much cheaper and they can be so cute! She looked adorable.
That is so cute and no sew is an easy way out. You just ended up with something that looks nicer and will last longer.
This is good timing since we are going to Disney this week! What a sweet outfit!
I’ve always loved Minnie Mouse and I really like this costume. It’s perfect for little girls who want to dress up like their favorite character for Halloween.
this is a great costume. love the no sew and the versatility to keep using it way after Halloween!
That is SUPER CUTE!!! I never thought to just modify clothing for Halloween – this is genius!
Great idea to get a unique and cost effective costume. I love that the dress can be used again after Halloween.
Super cute! I love Minnie Mouse, and sewing. The last 3 years my kiddo has been Batman and we just use superhero pjs.
I am all for anything that doesn’t have to be sewn. The costume came out awesome!
Oh what a gorgeous costume! And so great it is no sew (I am awful at sewing) x
