Are you thinking about kids Halloween costumes yet?  A fun week is ahead on AStoriedStyle because for the next few days, I will be sharing a Halloween costume from Pottery Barn Kids and a simple DIY to go along with each one! My three year old daughter has recently changed her favorite color from pink to purple so when we saw this Butterfly Fairy costume, she was beyond excited.  Since it already comes with a wand, wings, and a crown, there wasn't much accessorizing to do.  Therefore, I knew we could have fun with hair and makeup. After some brainstorming, I knew I wanted her to have "antenna hair" so I played around and came up with this tutorial for you.  It is really easy and looks super darling!

This next "Pinterest Taught Me How To" is dedicated to my three-yeard-old daughter, whom I had this exact conversation with this past week.

Daughter:  Mommy, you have blood under your eyes.

Me:  What?  No, I don't!  Where do you see blood?  

Daughter:  Right there (pointing), the red and pink and purple.

Me:  (realization hits)  No honey, that's not blood, those are called dark circles.  

Ah the beautiful honesty of children!
