Inspired by my daughter's Halloween costume and my hula girl post....I created this treasury on Etsy.
It is titled "Aloha":

a hula girl

That's what my 6 year old daughter is going to be for Halloween this year. I thought that it would be a fun and easy costume to make. Also, it is the first year that she has finally let me talk her into dressing up as something other than a Disney princess:) Here is what we have done so far:
Is there anything that you can't make with a little elastic and some felt?
We still are going to make flowers to go around her neck, wrists and ankles...and a head piece. We also need to find something warm to wear underneath, because it gets pretty cold here at night.... thinking some thick tights and a long sleeved leotard or shirt? Overall, I think that it turned out really cute!
P.S. I got all this great felt from feltorama on Etsy. It is a great eco-felt made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. I really like the thickness and texture of it. Especially, compared to some of the other craft felts that I have used.

Okay...now I have to share some of my Etsy hula girl finds!

I absolutely love this crocheted hula girl outfit from UniquelyEwe:
