Lucia obviously was Tinkerbell complete with the outfit and slippers from Disney store. My 4 year old son wore his Captain Hook costume, and my 5 year old daughter wore a blue nightgown, hair bow, and slippers, and became Wendy.  When the kids Arrived: All the girls were transformed into Fairies, and the boys were transformed into Pirates. The boys were easy, I bought each a red kerchief, eye patch, and clip-on gold hoop earring. It cost about 80 cents/child. The girls required some more imagination...I found fairy skirts (ribbon tutus) on eBay that were multi-shades of green with little Tinkerbell appliques as fringe. They cost about $2.50/tutu. In retrospect, I probably could have made them for less but it was just easier this way. I did, however, make each of the girls a set of wings, using wire coat hangers, light green knee hi stockings that I found at Wal Mart, tape, and ribbon. If anyone is wondering how...bend each hanger into the shape of a wing. Slip one knee high over each hanger and stretch it so that the hanger is completely covered...fasten two hangers together (I used duct tape...can use wire, whatever works), use a pretty wide green ribbon to cover the area where the hangers are fastened together using a hot glue gun to hold the robbon in place. Use curly ribbon to make wide enough hoops to attach the wings onto your little girls shoulders. Now, I didn't do this, but as an added party activity you can have the girls decorate their wings with glitter, pom-poms, sequins, whatever. The wings were a huge success and many people seemed very impressed that they were home-made. Making them saved me a lot of money as these are not cheap. They do have wings in the dollar store, but mine came out much nicer. Anyway, as each girl came in, she was transformed into a fairy by being given a tutu, wings, and dabs of "pixie dust" (glitter and aloe vera gel) on her face.
