The Cutest Little GACK Ever!

Since this Dr. Seuss birthday celebration costume post has been getting pinned on Pinterest like crazy for the past couple of weeks, I thought I would update it with a few more details.  This post is from 4 years ago.  Hard to believe my little GACK is now 8 years old and we still have this costume in the dress-up bin, although the antlers don't look like this anymore.

My son's preschool celebrated Dr. Seuss's birthday today by dressing up as their favorite characters.  He was so excited.  He decided he wanted to be a Gack from "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish".  We went to the store and he helped pick out the supplies.  My very creative husband managed to create the headpiece out of sturdy floral wire and wrapped it with extra fabric.  He used red duct tape on the ends to secure the fabric to the wire.  The fabric is a short fur type of fabric that I found at Jo Ann's.  The rings on the antler headpiece are cut from thin sheets of colored foam pages that kids use for crafting.  The GACK shirt is really simple to make.  I just stitched up the sides and cut out a neck hole.  Then I cut red felt letters out and sewed them on by hand.
