The hours of costume-making paid off - the boys looked SO cute!
For Matthew's costume, I dyed a white shirt bright yellow, drew red lines with a fabric marker and sewed on big cartoon-ish buttons. I bought a yard of cow-print fabric for a couple bucks and cut out a vest. The belt buckle and gold star were cut out of cardboard and spray-painted gold. He was the darn cutest Sheriff Woody in the Wild West.
Jordan's costume was made mostly of cardboard and duct tape. I used foam for the detail pieces, and the arm bands were made out of yogurt containers and sippy cups. The whole thing was spray-painted white and then painted in detail with craft paint. I wish I had video taped Jordan's reaction when he saw the finished product. He was totally amazed at his real Buzz Lightyear costume.
