"EAT MOR POLLO"

Happy Cow Appreciation Day! A few weeks ago was Zara's first cow day experience at Chick-Fil-A and it was great! I had no idea it was in June until  Hubby, Z, and I were driving I noticed a small child dressed like a cow. First thing that came to my mind was Chick-Fil-A! I was so upset as I wanted to make Z the cutest cow costume! I had no choice but to look in my craft box and so happy I was able to make it work. 

I used scraps of black felt from the Miami Heat Onesie I had made for her. I'm so glad I saved them. 

I used a white onesie, iron, Heat and Bond , scissors, and my glue gun for the onesie. 

I made some spots on the heat and bond  Paper. Then I stuck it to the black felt by using an iron to press it down. Some did not stick as good as I would of liked so I went back with my glue gun and made sure they stuck. Once I finished the onesie I made a sign by painting the words " eat mor pollo". Instead of the traditional " eat mor Chikin" I thought I would make it unique and different. And everyone knows what Pollo means! Ok, maybe not everyone.... It means chiken in Spanish. 

I then decided to use bunny ears as the cow ears. All I did was moved them down froma pair Z already had. I put a Tutu on Z, painted her nose with black eyeshadow, and Tada!! 


Then of course I had to put on pink glitter shoes that would match! It came out better than I thought and the best part about it was that I did not spend a dime! 
Z got so many compliments and was even tweeted back by the Chik Fil A corp!! I can't wait till next year. It's a new family tradition! I will make hubby and myself dress up too. Hey, you do get free  food. Zara had a blast. Chik Fil A is the only fast food she has ever had.
