If you’re ever needing a cost effective costume, this would be it. We got two of Tee’s A2 art block and tore off the backing cardboard, searched the internet to check what bat wings looked like, then drew a sample onto the cardboard, cut it out with a sharp pen knife, then painted it both sides with black paint.
We then cut out holes strategically to tie ribbons onto the bat wings so they could be attached to Tee’s arms but after tying them onto her arms, we discovered that the wings didn’t sit well at the back so we had to tie another ribbon to hold the wings together across her back.

This is what it looks like in the front.
We also used the same card board to cut out bat ears and glued it onto a black hairband. Throw on some black clothes and you’re done. VOILA!
Here’s our Tee in her BAT cum Ben10 pose.
And the finished product…..
very nice! I have seen one on the internet, where they used black umbrella (material removed fr. the stick) as the wings. It looked nice too but too troublesome to make! Plus, it’s not like everyone has an old torn black umbrella readily available to be made into bat wings.. or do they?
and why was she not wearing any undies at home????
clever Mummy !!
Very Cute Bat-toddler
wow, tht’s really creative and very nice!
i love the ‘make up’ – how did u get the black stuff on her face, not shoe polish rite? btw, i was actually expecting a catwoman suit (too much of tv!) but then agn, it wld be too sexy on tee ya.
Great work and I love the creativity in how it was made.
Friday Frustrations could be any frustration that happened at any time. I only post my on Friday’s and have participants link theirs on Friday as well. Thanks for asking.
